Completed Stanley Baker as Lt. John Chard (MMM, 1/9)

[Edward]

Hi everyone - I'm a big fan of the movie Zulu so had a lot of fun painting this one. I think the sculpt is a good likeness of Stanley Baker. I slightly altered the mouth to change the expression. I used various photos to try to paint a likeness.

I used acrylics. Hope you like it.

Hi,
Having done this Bust. ( Not as good as this I hasten to add)
You have done a first rate job on him.
Very nice indeed.

Sterling work on this - I like the finish a lot! I have three of these Zulu busts, but can feel some conversions coming on...!

I like the technique you used over the re coat, leaving the brush traces to simulate the fabric texture.​
