Brill inspiring stuff. Dave
Amazingly beautiful, Paul.
I'm wondering if that truculent facial expression is due to him being a vicious and ferocious fighter or to the headache caused by his headgear... :upside:
Sorry,... the bust is a real masterpiece! :thumb2:

That, Paul, is most excellent.
The cold menacing stair that he has just say keep out of my way and we'll be fine.
A very different portrait of a very different warrior. I like it a lot.
By the way, did you know that in Indian culture people with green eyes are almost all looked upon as magical or evil...demonic and all that.

Thanks all, you're very kind.
Andy, that turban does look uncomfortable, doesn't it?
I didn't know about the association of green eyes with malevolence in some cultures, Ian - it certainly fits with the ruthless reputation of the Nihang.

Really nice, excellent job.
Looks superb
That is superb Paul. I doubt you could find more complex headgear to paint.
Simply outstanding!
A really great finish.
Very well done indeed!

Truly exceptional Paul. Everything from face and skin tones, through fabrics to the metals is top drawer. Got to be said though, that’s still very eccentric headgear

You might call it eccentric headgear, Tim, but I'd advise you don't say it to his face. The Nihang were the irregular, fanatical, doped-up shock troops of the Sikh Empire, after all.
In his prime, he'd've killed you just with that stare.
