Wow, a beautiful job in all departments. And lovely photographs as well.
I am so impressed, to pick just one example from this highly impressive bust,
with the way you have painted the colour red, in the over the shoulder
cloth and in the reddish plume on the helmet. Both are done so extremely
well, with the appropriate other tones to add the realism required.
Congratulations on a lovely presentation,
Ricardo Jayhawker

You really captured the red head spot on, from the chest hairs to eha rm pits and all the way up to the top of the helmet, and that stare. Impressive!
Cheers, Ski.

The paintwork is more than awesome! Very convincing.
The bust (both versions) is a very fantastic interpretation of various finds and sources from a very large time period plus the usual barbarian myths near to hokum. Celts did not have Santa Claus beards, no pigtails. Blue tatoos are mentioned only by Ceasar, but no tatoo needles are found. The first helmet is a overexaggerated interpretation of a Berru (Early Latene, around 500BC) helmet, but celtic helmet generally have no provisons for any sort of plumes. The other version is a late bronze age helmet (around 900 BC) of northern italic provenance, Villanova culture f.e. The correspondending north-of-the-alps finds are only roughly that style. Resume: Great bust, but not celtic.Sorry.
