Al "Scarface" Capone

[Alfredinn]

Hi all friends, after some time watching, learning and enjoying your works, I decided to begin a new bust, my 4th work, and what I'm gonna show you is the result of that decision. It's an 1/10 scale bust, a portrait based on a mugshot of the famous gangster Alphonse Capone, Scarface.

It's just been primed but still needs to be sandpapered again. I'm obsessed with learning this amazing hobbie of modelling scale figures so all your criticisms will be welcome.

Thanks !!!!!!!

Alfredo, I don't think we'll have to send you to swim with the fishes for this one! I think even Jimmy Hoffa approved! At first he wasn't quite sure, but I think we made him understand, if ya know what I mean.......Fun piece! Keep us posted!

Alfredo - That's a wonderful piece and a great likeness! You got the fleshy mouth, the scars, the flabby cheeks, the heavy eyelids - everything! I would say you nailed it!

All the best,
Dan

Hi all friends and thanks, specially to sambaman, Roc, Dan Morton and Stephan for wasting your time writing those nice words. I'm happy because I hate having to send somebody of my family to visit the people who give me bad criticism, :lol:

Sambaman, so am I saved ? I dont' like much the concrete shoes,

Stephan, It's a 1/10 scale bust.

I'm glad b'cause you've liked the piece. I think I've learnt much with this 4th work.

I hope to paint it soon, although I have already begun my first small figure (a 70 mm). It's a tribute to my uncle, a private who was killed in the spanish civil war.

I love this hobbie more than yesterday, but less than tomorrow.

HUGS !!!!!!
