Hi Guys this is what I am working on just now, this fantastic bust.I was inspired to get cracking with this after seeing Dave's great rendition of this.Have only been working on the face so far, but hope to start the rest soon.

Cheers David

Fantastic brushwork on the eyes! And the blendings on the skin tones are really looking like blendings should. Can´t wait to see more...

Regards

Peter

David, great start and superb painting as usual, he has the look of a veteran campaigner, maybe it's the darker shading around the eyes possibly.
Wow, 3 great painters posting the same bust and each one so very different
---Brilliant.
Look forward to your progess.

Cheers Ken

Thanks Peter for your kind comments, hope to have more to show soon.

Cheers David

Thanks Ken , glad you like him. You are spot on about the shading around the eyes,tried to give his face a battle weary look.
