This MDF skeleton arrived yesterday, and I confess I just had to start painting him. Basically just white gesso lightly all over him. Then I went over some of the outlines with a pencil to create some shade rubbing it with my finger. I then overpainted the bones with white acrylic paint, and added more shading with a a little black added to the white. I then went over him with Pebeo Phosphorescent gel.
I may need to do some more to him regarding shading, and possibly adding some more of the gel when my eyes are better to enhance the detail, as I really want him to glow in the dark; but I have plenty of time before Halloween.
As you can see he is quite tall - so finding somewhere to take a photo was difficult - so he got hung up on a branch of my pyracantha !
