Ahem Bonde?
And what about Ginger/Auburn?
I was responding to the quoted bit from tooshy, but even so blonde and red are a minority (and getting rarer because of recessive genes).
Among humans as a whole brown and black are the predominant hair colours... and of course all races go grey/white given sufficient ageing so technically that\'s
the commonest colour.

Results like this would be nice to achieve.
Here\'s a good example of what I was talking about - this isn\'t particularly realistic.
Good to see a range of finish but look carefully: you should see that the treatment of lighting isn\'t consistent, e.g. compare the skin to everything else; it looks to have fairly flat painting on the armour and mail; the shadow colours on the skin are too extreme.
Generally it has what I guess you could call \'arty\' colour more than purely realistic (this is a feature of his work, taken to extremes at times). On top of all that the groundwork ain\'t up to much honestly.

I was told by someone that learned to paint from him that he uses lots of glazes and whatnot to achieve is blending, yet another area I have trouble with. I need to work on blending, colors, and glazes I guess.
Glazing/layering (basically aspects of the same technique) are vital to working in acrylics, do have to work on those.
