This is one my latest projects. Roy kindly cast one off for me. If memory serves me right Roy sculpted it about 4 - 5 years ago. It's superb. It is based on this illustration from the Osprey book on the White armies of the Russian Civil War.



This is what i have done so far.



I know the phot is crap but you do get an idea of the painting so far.

Here is a pic of the raw casting by Roy. As usual from Roy the bust is superb.



Ross

Ross, That's one of my favorite Osprey title (the plate at least anyay). The Russian Army in WW1 title is a good one for figures/busts also. Post a few more pics.~Gary

Gary - I haven't got anymore pics, but i will try and do a blow up of the head on Photoshop.

Ross

Yes Ross...go for it....paint some more...I've never seen this painted before.
Any titles where Andrei Karatchouk has done the artwork are very inspiring...c'mon and paint some more

Nice work so far mate...Roy.

Hello Ross

Nice work so far mate. Have you seen this version.....



The El Viejo Dragon one. I enjoyed it, and they do a nice Red Army artillery officer from the same artist.

I've got one of these busts, courtesy Roy, but it's got as far as undercoat and stalled

Cheers

Phil

Interesting subject. The bust looks terrific!
