Very nice! I wish all busts had this much character!

 

[TWOMOONS]

Great face and hands! Positively magnifique!
I'm wondering exactly what particular emotion you are displaying here with that fascinating face and hand positions? Care to tell us?

Hopefully this is coming commercial.

[AvangarD]

thank you all for your messages!
I'm glad you like it!
I post some of my other old work

 

[Sambaman]

Very nice stuff! Love the skin texture on the first ghoulish dude, also like the wind effrct you managed in the hair of the more historical piece. The last orc looking thingy is nice as well. Skins and folds look spot-on. Well done, keep it up!

I'm going with 3rd down and 6 yards to go. Shotgun formation, late in the 4th quarter, the quarterback (the Parish Priest in this case, he and his teammates members of the 6th District all Catholic over 40's league) is calling an audible. With a look of pure determination, and his thoughts bent on finally beating those pesky Bishops from Our Lady of Perpetual Nausea, he's dropped back to send one last hail-Mary...........whoa, Ok I'm back....LOL!

Not sure what the emotion is here, but I like it!

LOL Samba...the hands are like that.
I always try to identify that feeling of what a sculptor is trying to reflect in facial/body expressions and attitudes.
I actually went to a school called "Our Lady of Perpetual Miseries"...

Beautiful sculptures nicolas!

Cheers,

I missed this one. Great sculpt. That face would paint up really well. I too like the hands and texture on his robe. ~Gary
