Guys guys...you are way too gentle to me. It's not that I am that skilled at figure painting, I'm only like a struggling pitbull, I keep going until it looks good enough. You never see the battles fought at my desk, only the wars won.
And there is the difference between a Master like you and someone like myself. You have victories to post while I can only post where I surrendered so I can move on.
Magnificent improvements man!

The realism in that face is outstanding fella 👍 I may have to do a bust myself soon… your work is very inspiring..😀 We can do a duo bust build then, a real busty build log.  I’d be up for that fella 😜 I’ll send you a post of the busts I have when I get chance over next couple of days 👍 |

Beano that's cool, looking forward to that. Thank you Pete! Thank you Tommy! Today I brushed the bandoleer, it's just a start, I'll have to put much detail in it as it's the centerpiece of the bust.  |

Marco, thanks as always my friend.
Paul, it's the quality of the sculpt, this one is ideal for beginning figurists. I do my very best for my deceased modelling mate Mark, ferking this up is no option.
Thank you chap.

Thank you chaps! Well as long as you don't find my regular updates boring I keep you posted of the works. Today I've tried to paint the fine fabric of the bandoleer. One more effort on this hopefully tomorrow and then later on another sessies on the stencil.  |

Guy, from here it does not need more work, but if you say so, I belive and wait for the perfection.
Paul, if the Show takes place, this one will be the Best of Show.

Thank you kindly chaps.
Paul I'll take it with me if Affligem is on.
Marco, Best of Show will be a mission impossible as two guys named Paul and Pete will enter with their masterpieces. The quality we see there is just incredible.
