I received El'Greco's Satyr Demon bust last week, and I must say it's a great little bust in it's own right, but I'm afraid to say I've been bitten by my old habit of adding legs on to bust's, but in this case it's more like adding 3/4 of the body.

He's in the very early stages of conversion with rough model putty over a wire frame, standing at about 150mm, I'm not sure yet if he's going to be naked with lots of body hair or covered with some type of rough clothing, He'll be holding a spear in the right hand while holding a chain lead in the left attached to the sabre toothed panther's collar(Verlinden's).
He's got a long way to go but I thought I'd show it now to see what you think of the idea of a sort of Demon type hunter taking his panther a-hunting for a victim.
I hope to make some more progress on it before Figureworld if possible.

Jim:

Wow, super. . . I agree with Kevin. Adding the animal was just the right
touch, re tension and atmosphere. . . and a much more interesting sense
of composition. A lot more eye candy now, mate!

To me, the animal really brings the theme of the scarey guy with
a hornsy personality, upward quite a few number of notches. Uh hun.

I will follow this project with a lot of interest.

Just a super idea. . . I am not a sculptor, so I admire someone like you that
can take that bust and make a full figure out of it. Wow. And . . Double Wow,

The Miami Jayhawk

Hey Jim - you don't waste any time, do you?? Wow, you are bringing him to life. Simply love it! Make sure you bring it to FigureWorld. Just great! Keep up the good work!

This is gonna be a nice vignette.
Like the addition of the animal.

Thanks Guys, So glad you like the idea, your comments are much appreciated.

Sorry Kev ...Looks like your right..No bust is safe when I'm around!

Matt ...Yep! There's never time to waste! I'll bring him along to Figureworld hopefully I'll get a bit more done by then

Cheers

Just shows the sculpting skills that the modeler has at his disposal, actually a nice talent to have indeed - this'll look great when finished, keep us in the loop.

Very clever.

Wow! Very cool! I can't wait to see more.

Jim a great start and looking forward to following.

Cheers Ken
