    The combined force was composed of soldiers of the Empire (Spanish, German, Italian) and the Portuguese and the Knights of Malta.
    Some illustrations of the battle:

    He is taking on a nice shape now Diegoff,
    The weapons look good.
    Will you add a little more to the sides of the end of the nose?
    the face shows strength of character.

    Always fascinated by sculpting SBSs and this is a great one. Very realistic proportions and face. Following your progress with interest (and envy).

    The small wrinkles are the result of using myself (with my runner pants on) as a model. :rolleyes::LOL:

    All these very small touches are so very good.
    The angle of his hat on the right side,
    the suggestion of a little bit of a belly for an older man.
    well done.
