Fantastic work Peter. Looking very good indeed.

Thank Peter. She is getting there - I still can't get the sort of smooth finish you acheive - more practice needed!

After my woodworking diversion, a little more work on her, nearly finished. The hat and a little touching up to do

Spot-on Peter. A very nice job so far.

[Peter Gillson]

Thanks Peter

Here is the nearly finished bust. I will leave it a day or so, then return to touch it up with a fresh pair of eyes.
I will post. A better photo tomorrow.

Looks very fine indeed. It will be nice to see the close ups once finished.

Hi Guys

Looking carefully at her I realized that the eyes were not quite right so I have resculpted the head, well the eyes really, and this is the result:


On the whole. Am quite pleased with her.
