Hi everyone - I'm a big fan of the movie Zulu so had a lot of fun painting this one. I think the sculpt is a good likeness of Stanley Baker. I slightly altered the mouth to change the expression. I used various photos to try to paint a likeness.

I used acrylics. Hope you like it.

Hi,
Having done this Bust. ( Not as good as this I hasten to add)
You have done a first rate job on him.
Very nice indeed.

Sterling work on this - I like the finish a lot! I have three of these Zulu busts, but can feel some conversions coming on...!

That is really lovely work! Great colours and the tunic is particularly nice. Regards Pete

Great piece of work Ed

Very well done indeed, as you can see from my avatar its one of my favourite films too…. but I do have a Royal Engineer bias too!

Great work Edward. Face and eyes is awesome

I like the technique you used over the re coat, leaving the brush traces to simulate the fabric texture.
