Cracking figure, there is something rather elegant about the Guards regts in Egypt at this time that you have captured really well. Love how you did the lenses in his goggles, reminds me of painting bejewelled flat figures.

Cheers Simon

Very characterful face, great job all round. The only critique I would make is that the jacket could be more scarlet as he's an officer but that's just my opinion.

Hi Graham

You’ve done a nice paint on this , it’s a great facial sculpt and he certainly looks very determined, liking the eye and teeth on him

The goggles really work well

This sculpt always reminds me of the 1978 film The four feathers

Always good to see your artwork

Looking forward to seeing more

Have fun @ the bench in ‘25

As mentioned, the face looks great; lots of character. Rest of the bust is fantastic as well.
