WIP Critique Roman Aquilifer, 1st Century AD (Soldiers)

    The last weeks I was too busy to spend a lot of time here on PF. In my little free time I had to finish the preparations for a workshop. This is the head that I prepared. It's a 54mm figure from Soldiers sculpted by the talented hands of Adriano Laruccia. It's almost finished, I still have to do some corrections.
    The face is painted using acrylics. Now I have to continue with the rest of the figure but there is too much on my workbench and not enough time.

    Thanks for looking and comments/critiques are welcome!

    Cheers,
    Marcel.

    Your face looks excellent Marcel, shame the eyes are so asymmetrical (the sculpting, not your paintwork).

    If he's going to have dark hair, maybe add some greyish beard shadow?

    Couldn't agree with you more. Although I knew it was a 54mm head, the painting has more character than most busts we see painted which are nearly 10 times larger than this head. Amazing....simply amazing.
