As I'm still waiting for the kit to turn up for my Varangian project, I thought I'd dig this one out and have a go. It's Verlinden's 200mm bust of Marshall of France Louis Nicolas Davout, a famous bald man (to look up to for those of us who are also follically challenged!).
I've more of less finished the head:

The eyes were pretty tricky to match up, but then they always are. I've tried to experiment further with Vallejo Black Red, the aim being a cooler palette - I've also added a lot of Off White to the Flat Flesh base colour for the same reason.
Just a three part kit, including the base:

All of that gold lace should be fun to do.
