Wars of the Roses Bust

Shane · Jul 3, 2008

Hey Everybody,

Here's a few pics of my latest effort, a 1/8 scale depiction of a man-at-arms from the Wars of the Roses. This piece could easily represent the typical soldier of the late Hundred Years War period as well. The man wears a sallet and breastplate over the livery jacket. His weary apprearance suggests recent action, perhaps at the battle of Towton, the bloodiest battle on English soil.

Excellent Shane. Even without paint he looks weary and tired.

Great work Shane! Very convincing weary look, and the simplicity of this piece really draws attention to that fact. Great stuff!

Dudes,

Thanks for all the positive words. I'm pretty happy with this one. The helmet is actually a separate piece which took more time. Still, It came together quickly.

Outstandin' bust man, wonderful.

Really nice bust. I love the character you've got into this, and the way you can see the pose he's in, despite the fact you were limited to only head and shoulders! Quality work, genuinely.

Shane, amazing sculpt, I like it a lot.
If this goes commercial I will definitely put it on my wish list.

Cheers
Roc
