Hello,

I began to create another hussar bust, which is meant to wear hood and on his back has Kalkan, amour, simple bust without any wings - I should be able to complete it quickly, at least before 2020 ... .

Concept below.




Any comments, photos, comments, criticism are welcome ... I hope that I can avoid past errors - as I read on one of a Russian forums: 'my previous hussar bust has a breastplate like a life jacket'... and I couldn't agree more with that .

Small update - kalkan shield ready.

The Persian pattern copied from a Persian rug...
Please note that its actual size comparing to the buts' size is smaller - the photos' perspective amended the size a little bit...

Nice work

Sorry for the photo quality!



A little bit of progress, all parts are not glue yet just put on the bust for the moment of taking the photo. I think that the bust is now 33% completed.
Note that the armour is still in the development phase - so some inaccuracies will be removed later.

Interesting sculpt. I like the way it's going

Hello, a little more progress than last time. Thanks to my collegues' advices I have reshaped the armour (comparing to the last photos). So I estimate that the bust is 50% ready, still there is a cloak to be added and all gears. Hope you like it. The head is almost ready - I have to add more wrinkles.

Some progress


Winter is coming!

Very nice
Steve

Thank you guys for the feedback and interest

Scale is something between 1/9 and 1/10 and 200mm Who knows...

References - hm... cause there is no many known photographs from the period I gone trough the literature, known armors and also direct reference is from some reenactors site (I will try to posts those pictures later).

BR, Piotr
Happy 2015!

A little bit of progress here...
