    Hi Everyone,
    Once again too long since I posted- I finished this one a while ago....its a subtle conversion on a Master I sculpted for Pegaso- regular GI haircut instead of the Pegaso figures mohawk
    Hope you guys like it
    John

    Always great to see your work here again, John - welcome back to the fold. Really like the youthful, yet "young tough" look you've rendered on this guy - even the slightly "cauliflower ear" on the right side of his head suggests he's been in a few. On top of that, the dirt texture on the groundwork is really effective as well.

    Thanks for sharing it with us.

    Regards,
    Brian

    Incredible. Looks more like a picture from real life rather than a photo of a figurine.

    Perfect, from top to bottom.
    So life-like he looks ready to walk off the base.

    Cheers,

    Absolutely stunning John. The hands are excellent and the new head is superb, I'd say better that the one you did for Pegaso as it reflects the period images.

    I hope to see the fruits of.. -that darn work thing-... at my local cinema soon!

    Jon.

    Would like to comment on everything but I will choose the groundwork, the clothing textures/food and the youth and intensity of the face. Terrific!
