Hi Eddy, No it certainly wasn't the first thing I thought of when I bought this bust.

Originally I intended to convert the bust from a Brit to an Aussie. The "bustarama" concept evolved over several months and then it became an exercise in constructing a "frame" for the bust to make it look realistic and create the illusion of the lower half of the body behind the curtain.

Thanks very much for your generous comments mate.
 
Well Done mate, this is the most evocotive version of this piece I have seen to date!!!

The credit is ALL yours mate, you have taken the piece and made it your own, and deserve all the Positive compliments and feedback you have received!!!!

Great work!!!!!

Happy New Year Buddy. And the Cricket starts again tomorrow HeHeHe!!!!

G'day Carl, thanks for sharing your thoughts on my bustarama with everyone on the Planet mate. You've been far too generous in your praise, and I want to acknowledge your brilliant sculpting as the inspiration for me going the "extra mile" on this project. Thanks also for sending me the helmets and more valuably, your constant encouragement and friendship throughout the months I spent building and painting this bust.

Hi Christos, thank you very much for your comments mate, I greatly appreciate them.
