Hi,

here is a new project, from US civil war. I was inspired by a well known photo:

It started not so bad, but you'll see that mine probably ate more french fries than the original.....









Cheers

Very big cheeks. In the photo it thin.

You're absolutly right Fex, i failed to represent his thin aspect (and not only for the cheeks...), so i titled the post: "try to...", but i liked the pose so i kept it anyway on my workbench and will finish the paint work.

What does "Gal" in the title mean? Gallant? THX!

It just means "general", isn'it the good diminutive in english ? I just realise that i didn't thought that it sounded like the popular word for "girl" ...sorry

I tried to change the title but i couldn't, does somebody can show me the way ??

There all a lot of good elements to this. Perhaps you need to take a wee bit more time in measuring and posing the armature. You clearly have the skills. Don't be discouraged and keep sculpting.

Thanks a lot Colin, and yes you pointed it.....i'm really to eager to finish when i sculpt something, i have to learn patience, i'm still a little padawan...

That word is usually written as "Gen" but don't worry about it. I was just curious. Thank you for answering.
