Hi all .....this is an update from my previous wip......it's a lovely large offering from Bonepartes Military Models and sculpted by Richard Bailey....

Thank you for looking ....Mike.

Lovely bust, great expression and very good painting, congrats!

If I may, I think the 5 o'clock pm effect for the beard is a tad too evident and limited in the area of the chin.....looks a bit odd to me especially compared to the cured moustaches and sideburns......but may be the effect of the photo

Great work!!

Very fine work; nice bust.

Very nice work, Mike. I really like what you’ve done with this one.

I do believe that Renato makes a valid point regarding the five o’clock shadow, but that may be a matter of personal taste.

Keep up the good work!
Kurt

Many thanks for looking in and commenting..... Mike

Hi and many thanks for your constructive comments....I do tend to get a bit carried away with seven o clock shadows and I'll try to restrain myself next time lol. The pics are only taken on my mobile. . But thanks for looking in. . Mike

Another super piece Mike. Really like the shade of blue for the uniform and your treatment of the Raupenhelm.

I like your version of the hard to nail down Bavarian 'Kornblumenblau' (Cornflower blue).

Many thanks for your support guys..... Mike
