| Ok, I`ll show my last photos...and last step ![Wink](/users/3211/17/63/12/smiles/1466736124.gif) 20. The Papo 2006 male tiger is finished :) I want to show you how I did the paws, so here are 2 photos of them : Paws from the front legs: ![Repainting a TIGER in ``Kosta`s style`` :D - Page 6 Image](https://2img.net/h/s19.postimg.cc/kejip53gz/image.jpg) And paws from the back legs: ![Repainting a TIGER in ``Kosta`s style`` :D - Page 6 Image](https://2img.net/h/s19.postimg.cc/mvv9wev37/image.jpg) And this will be my last photo.. Here you can see, how I did the back legs and the tail. Check the difference, between the strips, from outside and inside of the legs .. : ![Repainting a TIGER in ``Kosta`s style`` :D - Page 6 Image](https://2img.net/h/s19.postimg.cc/yxqnqjow3/image.jpg) Sooo, ladies and gentlemen, with exactly 20 steps and 50 photos, my tutorial about, how I`m repainting a tiger, it`s finished! Ups..actually, if Susanne likes the model, she will finish my tutorial with some more photos from the whole model I called this guy : Tigreco ( like one artist El Greco ) :) So, earlier today, Tigreco packed his luggage and he began his journey to Denmark ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Let`s all of us, wish him luck, with safe and fast arrival :) Thank you all, for watching my tutorial. Thank you for your kind and warm comments :) I hope, that my totorial is helpfull for some of you...and I hope , that is not too detailed :) Your bulgarian friend Kosta ![sunny](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_sunny.png) _________________ KOSTA ![afro](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_rr.png)

| :) Thank you very much Mgarat, I realy appreciate your comment :) And I can`t wait to see your siberian tiger :) I forgot to say something... When I finished the paint job, I used acrylic varnish, to protect the paint. My choice is : Acrylic SATIN varnish. And the brand is : VALLEJO Our kind friend Anna, recommended me this brand..and I`m very happy with it :) I tried other brands before...and every time, my modles were sticky after that With this brand i don`t have problems at all :) I think, maybe the reason is, that VALLEJO make them varnish on water-based. Some of my latest repaints, I finished with VALLEJO - MATT varnish... but with MATT, the model doesn`t look so good. It look`s a bit undistinguished. With SATIN, the model look`s better. It gives it a nice, discreet shine Last thing, it is important how you use the varnish. I frizz the spray form 30 sm...I`m waitnig around 15 min to be dry...and I do this at least 3 times everywhere on the model ![Wink](/users/3211/17/63/12/smiles/1466736124.gif) So, yeah, it is a bit long and slow work....but, in Bulgaria we have one proverb : ``бързата работа - срам за майстора``, which means : ``rapid work - shame for the master`` ...and for shure, it is a faster work, then repainting ![Laughing](/users/3211/17/63/12/smiles/3394263036.gif) _________________ KOSTA ![afro](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_rr.png)

| Thank you SO much, Kosta! I need to check this varnish out, I was in art shop yesterday, but there is no any good varnishs in here :/ _________________ My shadow's the only one that walks beside me, My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating.

| How did I miss this tutorial? This is a fantastic tutorial Kosta and I enjoyed every single picture and explanation of it! And some of your comments and of other members where very funny too! You displayed many secrets of the way you paint and I thank you for this! This Tiger is a true piece of art done with lots of craftsmanship and cleverness! A question from me, did you learn it by yourself or did you have a teacher? Art class? |

A question from me, did you learn it by yourself or did you have a teacher? Art class? ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Thank you very much, for all these nice and warm words Shanti I`m happy, that you saw step by step, my looong tutorial ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) and you like it :) To answer to your question... Before 16 years I finished Art school ( 5 years, drawing, painting, sculpting...) So I have some experience...But to repaint models is something specific, diferent and new for me :) I started last wear, mostly repainting wild cats...and since then, I improved my technique, with trying diferent ways to do that :) So now , I`m on this level...and I hope, I`ll improved more :) ....and next step - sculpting my own models... ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Let`s see when.. ![sunny](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_sunny.png) ...By the way, I have the same question for you Shanti, ..where and how, did you lurn to make such a nice repaints ? :) _________________ KOSTA ![afro](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_rr.png) |

| Thank you Kosta for the nice explanation! :) This clears a lot in my head! It sounds like you are a true expert in art science! And your work surely shows it! I learned repainting just learning by doing (and failing!), studying how other people work, looking and searching for tutorials (there are just a few people who are willing to tell their "secrets") and just doing it. But I am really happy you actually like my repaints! ![Embarassed](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_redface.gif) |

| I needed to revisit this topic as soon as I could. ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Repeating a little, to see how talented you are, we only need to see the final product but what caused more admiration while watching all these steps, it is how clever you are. You think in every detail to make it look as much realistic as possible. The final effect is strondous and quite convincing. Susanne is lucky, she deserves to be and we are also lucky of having a top quality tutorial. |

| Thank you very very much Roger and welcome back I made this tutorial with pleasure... and it also helped to me, becouse trying to make and explane every step, I was more careful, more reasoning, more thinking... so, I can say, that this tiger is at least 2 times better, then my previous Papo tiger :) _________________ KOSTA ![afro](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_rr.png) |

| AAAAHHH, congrats, Susanne! You have a really good bulgarian Santa. Our, russian, isn't nice... I think, if to do a supposed background to this tiger, he will be look really alive (I mean not very realistic figure, but REAL tiger as somebody could think), Kosta did an absolutaly GREAT job! Sorry, Kosta, that I didn't say it to you before (my notebook is pretty idiot, and so it just didn't show me your last photos). I would love to get something by Kosta, but when I imagine, how much details, patience and nerves includs such work, I understand that it is better to trade my sculpture to Kosta's repaint, cause I just haven't enough of money XD _________________ My shadow's the only one that walks beside me, My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating.
