Hi planeteers!!
This is my rendering of this 1/9 scale bust sculpted by Romain Van den Bogaert a few years ago. I liked it since first time I saw his sculpture work about it.... and I knew I would end up painting one for me. Finally, this year I obtained my copy and here is my finished version. Since already you will have supposed, both, sculpture and painting, are inspired on National Geographic's 1985 famous cover. I have only tried to catch the magic look of this Afghan girl, though only this be in a small part (sorry for my bad english
).
More Info about Sharbat´s life on My blog (in spanish).
Or also in the article A life revealed
Kisses.
PD: painted with airbrush/brush and acrylics paints.
