    Very nice work Kevin.
    Saw this at Poole, and my first photo was this bust.
    I can certainly confirm it looks even better than the photo indicates.

    Cheers,

    Very nice. I wish I could get those warm skin tones. When I try, they end up like Coco the Clown....

    Great subject Kev, very nicely done (y)

    Nap...I must say that paintwork looks super.... and I love the burl base with just enough room to scrimshaw or carve the name in the front corner........just a thought;..my wife thinks I'm too picky.

    Hi Guys

    BIG THANKS for all the comments

    Wayne ...thanks for the suggestion ...I turned it round ...might even change the base .....using he burl the idea was to give an impression of the rough ground at the time ...then the nameplate arrived...

    Chris .......it's not good mate I just can't find that word leg or legs in my house dictionary at all ...lol

    Thanks to all for lookng in
