Hi Carl,

I know from your previous post that this is a beautifully painted bust. I'd really like to see some more photos please. The sepia tone effect is cool but let's have some colour pics too so we can see how you've finished it. I really like the idea of using mud from Passchendale to create your mud effects. That's taking realism to extremes.

Nice one Carl. The despare is really showing in this one. Love the sepia photo as well!

nice work on this one Carl and good to see some colour added with the use of the scarf, great idea to replicate the mud with....well mud, very effective.

Great rendition, Carl!
I take a wild guess it is Andrea flesh colours?

Very nice Carl.

I like the scarf, i like the gasmask and his coat.
I don't like the color of the helmet and his moustache.
Seen a Tommi helmet two weeks ago and it wasn't green, but more the same color as the coat. The mud gives reallity to the figure. Great.
The moustache seems at my screen a blueish tone. Don't know if it is in real life, that's why i don't like the moustache.

Carl, excellent painting all round and a nice touch with the ' real mud' Looking forward to seeing this Monday.

Cheers Ken

Very nicely done.

good job on this Carl!

I notice you tilted the bust somewhat compared to the box art. It makes a lot more sense IMHO

Mark

Nice work Carl,some of your best work so far IMHO.


Cheers David

Hi Carl
Great painted bust. I like the scarf it adds colour and a feeling of a little home comfort.

PS
Taking mud from Passchendaele? I hope you didn't take it all

Excellent work Carl！
A facial expression is wonderful.
The color of the clothes is also beautiful.
I liked it very much.
I congratulate completion.

Very well done Carl - you've put a lot of work into this.

Turned out very well Carl.

From what other battlefields did you collect ground work?!!

Cheers,
Adrian
