Doctor Doom - Painting (V)

Let Phase II begin!

The trademark hooded mantle of Victor von Doom was scheduled for this weekend; and though I got off to a late start today, the mantle is now done! At least the first go-round.

The mantle is a test of endurance and awareness. In short, it is not an easy item to paint. Nothing that is difficult per se; rather, the miniaturist's task is to make the overworked drapery appear as natural and realistic as possible. I'm pleased with what is now before me, but it ain't over yet. . .

With but three items on the bench now, I will try to get some ip pics up when the initial sheen burns off.

Back to the bench!
