Hi Guys,
Here's a WIP of the Iwo Jima USMC bust. It's in oils, the face is done and his shirt is almost complete as well. I still have to simulate the "herringbone" pattern of the fabric and add sweat stains. As you can see, I sculpted a more substantial "podium", "pole", whatever to display him on. Still don't care for the ones (if ANY) that come with most busts.
Best!
Ric
