incredible, it's looks so realistic. How do you get that effect on skin? oo

Thanks! I did a lot of layering, of thin oil glazes to get this look. :)

oh ok! not sure if that works with acrylics as well... have to try to paint in oil sooner or later

It can be done with acrylics, but I find it much easier in oil because it stays workable longer. I have seen people pull off this technique in acrylic, but only with the use of an acrylic retarder.
