Now that is one stunning rendition! He surely looks like he just returned from a grueling mission.
I am overwhelmed...

 Finally another update on the bust. The reason why it took this long : I've been blending oil colours until the colour was a spot on match with the real deal. It felt like I was never going to find the right colour combination until I added a small brush tip of emerald green to the existing paint puddles on my palette. Now I'm carefully building up the subtle shades, reflections lights in the shadowy parts of the folds etc.  This was practically driving me crazy as the colour is not brown, not green but something in between. Now I can finish the other half of the jacket.
