They all look good, Stephen. I like the lighting on the first two better than the third. Thx for posting the close ups. Makes me want to get another bust going myself!

Thanks guys. Very appreciated. Keith ,you're right. Don't know why cause all were taken with the same settings.

Stephen Mallia

Wow, that is a great looking paint job. The flesh tones are really nice but, I like the eyes best. They look real. Great job.
What kit is this? It looks pretty cool.
I will continue to watch your progress with great interest.

John thanks. Thsi is a bust sculpted by John Rosengrant for S&T. You're right, John did an awesome job

Stephen Mallia

No,I stand to correct you,this was a bust sculpted by John for warriors and not S&T. Thanks just wanted to clear up this little matter,John was an owner of WSm and sculpted over 40 figures for the line.Mrosko

Thats absolutely amazing painting , with nice graduationand smoothness. Eyes are really striking!!!

Chris , you're correct. My mix up. Apologies

Stephen Mallia

Stephen - That's awesome! The eyes look very life-like indeed!

Is this meant to be one of the actors from "Band of Brothers"? Don't know his real name, his character's nickname was "Buck" - a Lt. who suffers combat fatigue at Bastogne, goes to hospital, etc. Pretty good likeness anyways!

All the best,
Dan

Stephen

That is just beautifully done, I wish I could paint busts like that, I still have a way to go
the flesh and eyes are brilliant

Dave

Dan , thanks. Don't know if it's the same guy :lol: but the subject at hand is German :lol:
