    As usual, I use FIMO polymeric putty (green) for the face over an epoxi putty basic skull.

    Then, I sculpted the cap in epoxi putty and details in green stuff. After that, I added the hair and moustache in white FIMO, and cooked it in the oven again.

    The torso is all made in epoxi putty. First I sculpted the shirt, and painted it; and then I sculpted the wool jacket over it... something like tedious...

    And this is the result:

    Your faces are so realistic, Mochilote - each time I look at one of your sculpts in its unpainted state, I can see a feature I hadn't spotted before.
    With your Argentine Navy captain it was the eyes, with this bust it's the age lines in his face (so true to life) & the slight frown in his expression.
    Bravo!
