Hello, I'm doing right now this Box Art to my friend Stuart, the bust was Sculpt by Stuart Hale and you can order from here http://www.stormtrooperminiatures.co.uk/pedestal-pieces-19th-scale-busts.html

Hope you enjoy this sbs

Right now I'm working on the face and some other parts...

This are the first steps of the face

Don't start it yet!.. going for a popcorn tub!!

working some other parts of the bust...

Love the blue nose - setting the mood already.

And the face finished as you can see I use some violets and pink color tones to catch the moment of cold weather

Im loving it. Love the cold looking face. It's something I've tried many times but have never got it near to this look. Fantastic

Superb work on the face Ernest, and just in time. Got this wonderful sculpt from Stu at Euro and will be starting it very shortly. Its a super bust and its really nice to see Stu sculpting again.
Will be watching as you progress Ernest and if you dont mind I will use your ideas when I start mine.
Great Job Stu and Ernest.

Very well done!
Happy painting Chris

Very inspiring work, great feeling on the face. Love the pose on this bust also, quite dramatic
Ben

I agree

Great figure, but the painting that you are doing for the box art is far beyond my scale's
This is very inspiring, and hope to see some more pictures when you are further in the process.
