WIP Agamemnon, the Mycenaean King

[Theodoros]

From the range of Alexandros Models releases, I have choose to paint the bust "Agamemnon" (http://www.alexandrosmodels.com/categories/ancient-greece/ag-122-agamemnon) . The box art is so inspirational that I have choose to follow it as a paiting guide. The lion fur is painted as an alive animal, in order to indicate the moral and the soul of the King he wears it.
This is the result I have reached. You can see the progress of painting the lion fur and the metals. I think is a promissing start for this magnificient bust.

Oils over enamel basecoat.

I hope you like it.
