    I have now moved onto the painting of the flesh on the piat gunner bust,with this bust it was important for me to get that battle hardened unshaven / rugged look on this bust,the box art is not my cup of tea in regards of a soldier in the heat of battle,but that's my own preference.

    As I did with the first 3 para busts,i will do all the flesh work first then work simultaneously down each bust,i much prefer to work this way when painting more than one bust.

    Hi Brian

    As always your painting achieves that battle worn effect , tired ,exhausted....like the beret colour as well

    Looking forward to seeing the camo on this and the others

    Thanks for sharing
