Hi Guys I was pushed to start something today, and this is the results so far, I was so taken by this bust at WE, I just had to do something with it, there is still a way to go on this so forgive the unfinished look.

Let know what you think as I wanted to add more to the leatherwork on the flying helmet

Is this a character from Dinotopia?
There is definately alot of personality in that bust. Great paint job too.

I second the comment about the eyes. Overall it looks very realistic.

Those eyes have it. I don't know what but they are extremely attractive. I think you paint one of the best eyes i ever seen.
Waiting for the next pictures.

Hi Dave,

Thx

Fantastic painting Dave. I look forward to seeing this bust released by JMD in the near future.

Hi Guys

Thanks very much for your comments, its an absolute joy to paint this little piece.

Guy, I think it may already be out as I got it from the JMD stand at WE, after talking to the guys on there and Jean Paul Dana, it seems it may be ready just not on their website.

Apparently the bust follows no real resemblance to anybody, it kind of reminds me of a cross between The pilot from the first Mad Max film and Radar from MASH.......

Dave

What a great bust, Dave.
You've really brought out the best in it, excellent painting.
Who sculpted this one?

Hi Dave

WOW! what a fantastic bust, I have never seen this one, your paint job so far has bought out the best in this fine sculpture, keep us posted on the progress on this one. Thoes eyes are some of the best I have seen.
Cheers
