Inspired by the painting, the cossacks write a letter to the turks

painted in Acrylics,
sculpted by one of our friends of planet, sadly missed

RIP Greeny

I have altered the pose Rocking him over slightly.
He is leaning to the right now, as if listening to another's conversation

Blimey, you painted two of em. This one is just slightly better than the other one, although it could be his twin brother.
The only thing missing is the Kendal (medium) dutch shag smoking tobacco. :happy:

Nice on.

Mmmmm ..........Dutch shag.......now you are talking.
I think it's Mark S grandad, there's a resemblence to his avatar.
thanks for looking Bob

Cheers Steve, it does add a bit doesn't it,
I felt a bit smug that it worked to be honest.
It gives two seperate viewpoints too.

Thanks for your comments.

Hi Paul,
You should be very proud of this one, the skin tones are immaculate, this is set off by great choice of clothing colour.

cheers

Very nice bit of painting ...... and so different to everyone else's.
That leaning-in pose really gives it an additional difference.

Cheers,
Andrew
