Uih...Yeah I mean...mmmm-mmmm, uih! The feathers are glowing with a fireiness, like what I can imagine being in his spirit, and such a fierceness in his expression. Another absolute winner!! ~K

The detail in the face is excellent, but I would really like to see more of the original detail in the regalia.

OMG! This is amazing. I really can't possibly figure out how someone can colour like this. You're so gifted. It's stunning how you've done this in such great deal. It really looks like a photograph, meaning this in nothing but a compliment.

I guess I never get bored with your Indians, what a pleasure to see the big image and to be able to see how much attentions is given to everything. Your way of painting wrinkels and skin keep impressing me. And the feathers are so...feathers! One little point of critique (feels so idiot to critique you, but it's meant kindly): his face seems to have less colourdifference than I saw in your other paintings, as if you used more limited colorpalette. But maybe I'm just too spoiled by your other works....

No, I think you're right. I first paint the faces, because it's the most important part of my portrays. When I decided to use those rich colors for the feathers the face was already finished and in comparence to the headdress it was too achromatic colored. I added some red color afterwards but obviously you can still see it (you can still see it. ). In fact I never used such bright colors for my NA drawings before and it is another little step for me to improve.
Feel free to mention everything you don't like. You're helping me getting better this way. Thanks!
