First ever bust

[kenshin393]

Rogue pirate from Fer miniatures in acrylic.
OK, I get it, I never understood busts before but I totally get it now. Learnt so much doing this and very pleased with the result.

Have never done a bust,probably never will but I know that they're hard to paint and if this is your first go and it looks that good....you should definitely keep it up.

That's a first class effort and way beyond what would be expected from a first bust.

Gracias Dereck, very kind of you. I surprised myself if I'm honest, now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to strut around the room for a while.
