The idea! An amount of details. How it is executed! From the top of the column to the man in the base with his bow. That Medusa wave around the breaking column in an upstanding turn of her body! All these paint on scales!
The wave of the segment protectors of the fighter! The whole fighting dynamic of the figure! The panting.
And to dot of the i`s and cross the t`s it is the position of the eye. By slightly turned head the eye are moved to focus the target and not paint in the center of the white! Also well catch with the camera!
Just to name some of all highlights.
A lot of imagination, skill, time, patient is inside this superb work.
Thumb up.
PS: I was positive surprised that you do an answer to my Dio "Paradise bird". Till I realized now that you do these very dynamic medusa Vignette.
And it is nice to let us see some work in progress pic.
