While painting my converted bust of Shaka Zulu , i received a customers proposition of making a different conversion of the bust . I was totally free to do what i wanted as as this bust would be different from the Pegaso and from Shaka Zulu (the first conversion)

So here i Present you Zulu Ka Malandela the founder of the Zulu tribe
(of course i got full artistic license as this guys is not existing in portraits or pictures !)

It was really challenging to see what i could do with this bust as a second conversion

I just hope you like it

Lovely conversion. I got to admit I like him a bit more than the previous one. It seems to me you ll be busy painting so if you get tired give me a call. I ll be glad to help with this Beauty.
 
You are doing very nicley with these Zulu conversions Costas, i like this second rendition and once painted i think it will look stunning.

Have you thought of maybe adding to the beard growth to make the conversion even heavier, just a thought mate but you are doing great as it is.

All the best mate,

Steve thanks for post mate. I tried to extend the beard indeed , but it was really pretty fine on the face , and the extra was not looking so good so i took it off. If you were closer , i may had some help !!!!

Keep Safe
