Good work so far mate!
I had Bill Sykes as played by Robert Newton (?) on the list to do as a bust but not much point to it now
This is a great looking figure!

I had Bill Sykes as played by Robert Newton (?)

Now you see...

To me, Oliver Reed = Bill Sykes.

Robert Newton = Long John Silver.

How about a Fagin bust Pete....plenty of character in that

Hi Pete,
Don't give up on the idea Mate, Newton was a different kettle of fish to Reed.
I really do not like suggesting subjects to sculptors. Here comes the but (or butt) I saw this picture that might spark something off for you?
As you seemed a little may be a double headed bust.......with a beer theme, Guinness and Newton & Ridley. Not that I watch "Corry" and I can't think of a Ridley to make it complete.
Chin up Mate. Cheers,
Keith

Nearly finish. Just have to paint the rat, some touch ups and adjust the weathering.
