    While painting my converted bust of Shaka Zulu , i received a customers proposition of making a different conversion of the bust . I was totally free to do what i wanted as as this bust would be different from the Pegaso and from Shaka Zulu (the first conversion)

    So here i Present you Zulu Ka Malandela the founder of the Zulu tribe
    (of course i got full artistic license as this guys is not existing in portraits or pictures !)

    It was really challenging to see what i could do with this bust as a second conversion

    I just hope you like it

    You are doing very nicley with these Zulu conversions Costas, i like this second rendition and once painted i think it will look stunning.

    Have you thought of maybe adding to the beard growth to make the conversion even heavier, just a thought mate but you are doing great as it is.

    All the best mate,

    Steve thanks for post mate. I tried to extend the beard indeed , but it was really pretty fine on the face , and the extra was not looking so good so i took it off. If you were closer , i may had some help !!!!

    Keep Safe
