Yes not done much painting though. Doing some diy around house and garden and building acoustic guitars and ukes!

Yet another update on this bust, I've redone the details around the helmet Spike and added a bit more to the Pagri front & back of the helmet where the "twist" or "crossovers" are, now all primed in grey ready for undercoating, just a few quick pics from my laptop hence the poor detail
Cheers

No wonder we had an empire if we all looked that menacing...

Hi Jim,
I’m a bit late to the party but have just caught up on this thread and I’m following your progress with great interest. Great call to change headgear. This is a unique piece and a marvellous testament to your skills as a sculptor and painter.
