Hello friends, long time no see ! the summer was so cool here i just couldn't resolve myself to get to the man cave but i started painting this fantastic sculpt from Nuts Planet, not my comfort zone but i always loved this bust. please excuse me if my work is not totally accurate in term of historical colors i will do my best
so here i am actually, all in acrylics (Scale 75)

as usual all your comments are more than welcome !

2 years ... it's been 2 years since i didn't had the confidence to keep on working on this one ...
today was the day
I first tried to go NMM but ... i wasn't happy with the result so i took the true metals way.
still far from finished but at least i like where it is going now

cheers !
