'Colaccio Beccadelli - Cavaliere Emiliano 1330

[roadking]

​

This bust of Nicolaccio Beccadelli was created by Augie Rodriguez in 2001 as part of his "Historicity" limited edition resin line. I was fortunate at the time to be at the top of the list for artist proofs (all of my kits are #2 - lucky, lucky!!). I recently started working on this bust again after having it sit for years and here are the completed results. This beauty was a joy to paint and my thanks to Augie for all his support and friendship over the years.

My areas of focus have broadened as everyone can see. I have some Romans and Medieval subjects in the pipeline now so stay tuned for more new work.

Very nice work Jim,
But my eye is always attracked to the dark red spot beneath the cheakbone.
I think you have to fade that more to let it look more natural.
But that is m y opinion.
