    Looking good Peter. Bit of a gimlet eye there, he’s got an echo of Billy Connolly about him.

        Very nicely done indeed. Looks much better with the headgear on (sorry don't know the official word for this type). He always looked a bit odd with a flat head but he really is looking the part now.

        Very well done.

                            Hi guys

                            I'm back, after spending nearly all of September in the UK moving my son from one uni to another and settling him in to a flat. Came back 2 weeks ago and having spent some time catching up on work and stuff I finally found time to finish this one.

                            Here are a few photos of the finished bust:

                            Click image for larger version Name: front left view.jpg Views: 11 Size: 5.2 KB ID: 1161277Click image for larger version Name: front view.jpg Views: 9 Size: 5.2 KB ID: 1161278Click image for larger version Name: rear view 2.jpg Views: 9 Size: 5.0 KB ID: 1161279Click image for larger version Name: side view.jpg Views: 10 Size: 5.0 KB ID: 1161280

                            This is based on a photo after the Crimean War but before he was awarded the VC, so he is only wearing the Crimean War medal and the Turkish Crimean War medal.

                                Looks great Peter. A real gimlet eye on him, and beautifully clean piping and insignia.

                                                    Hi Guys

                                                    thanks for the nice comments. Yes, it is nice to be back at the bench, never really liked painting and decorating so it was not at all a holiday in the UK! Next up is to finish off another bust, then get to grips with some 1/285 scale dioramas ... Which may include a couple of Stugs!
