I painted up my Obi Wan Kenobi life size bust that had been sitting on the project shelf for quite some time now.
I wanted to get some practice in with dealing with realistic skin tones which I find to be the hardest thing to capture. Bringing the resin to life can be difficult especially on us humans.
I airbrushed the the base coats & finished with dry/wet brush technique to get the look of old sun burnt weathered skin.

I absolutely dislike painted hair so he will definitely get a hood in the future.
I have a few more similar life size bust projects to paint up & this was my practice bust. :tongue:
