Greetings,
Yet another start,this being a British Para during WW2 ETO.I got the inspiration of this bust from Re enactors at the Omaka Airshow in the South Island held every second Easter.
There was a young fellow dressed as a Para and I asked if it were possible to take some pics for reference,explaining what i do.The best and most spontaneous pose was when he was buckleing his helmet.So I said" stay there ,this might work".
So this is the result so far,comments welcome.

Very original and natural Andrew. I like it a lot. I also like the way your sculpts are becoming smoother.

Grant ,
thanks for the comment.I think the best way to model is from life,that is from a live model if you can.Working from photos can limit you,unless they are from all points of veiw.Its important to work 360degrees ,and not only X and Y but Z also.
Andy

I love it!
I want one!

Andy excellent sculpting and a great pose .

Cheers Ken
