Great looking sculpt Peter, I'm sure the paint will compliment it too.

Peter.
Certainly has the " look " of an officer.:thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:
Look foreward to seeing Peters painting.

So am I.

I am going to start my painting of it on Monday, doubt if it will be as good a Peter's but it will be fun and I will post as I go

Away from sculpting for a while I am finishing painting my RAF pilot - see other blog - and this bust.

Here is the torso underpainted with acrylics and then given the first glazes of greys and black.

The next two photos are the underpainted head and with its first oil glazes.

The problem with this technique is the lengthy drying time - at least overnight.
