I would like to paint a figure as though it were a statue. Specifically this one: link Any suggestions? (it will be a terrain piece)

Paint bronze and then heavily highlight with shades of green.

I painted one light grey and then applied several washes of black ink (for a stone statue)

If possible, try to remove the figure from the textured base and mount on a plinth.
