A generation we will never see the like of ever again ...I really wanted to pay my own homage and respect

Thank you Bill ...it's getting there , no idea why I left face till last but seems to occur when there are medals on sculpt as also in the next after Harry the late HRH Prince Philip ....but will endeavour to do flesh first !

Appreciate your time

Thank you for commenting , they have come out okay and look good viewing the bust in scale


UPDATE

Harry has several spots/ pimples , these I added on the nose , left upper side of nose , left nostril at edge and just below left temple

Blemishes are also seen so will try and reproduce using paint effects

As I said I really want to pay tribute



More pics (click on images to view larger) showing the spots etc






Artist Bill Leyshon was commissioned to paint this oil portrait of Harry Patch by the Western Daily Press in 2007. It was unveiled at Fletcher House in Wells where Harry spent the last years of his life, and is now at Somerset County Museum, Taunton



Co-author Richard van Emden with Harry Patch on the publication of his autobiographical book, The Last Fighting Tommy in 2007



An emotional moment when Harry Patch (centre) joined Henry Allingham, 112, and Bill Stone, 108, as the last surviving veterans of the First World War at the Armistice Day Commemoration Ceremony at the Centotaph in Whitehall, London in 2008

Couple of iffyvision pics

Flesh coming along , still fair bit to do including lips , forehead lights etc

Shiny as there's a touch of blending medium ...letting it fully dry back before doing anything else

Did notice Harry wore hearing aids ......mmmmmm

All comments welcome
