French Royal Musketeer Bust 1:9

[Sven]

Dear Planeteers,
this is my latest project: A French Musketeer by ALTORES STUDIO in 1:9 scale. Nap made a great review on this particular bust. Please, check it out.

This bust war introduced not too long ago and it is great in its simplicity. No arms and no action pose, but a great face, some wonderful details and plenty of different textures. I tried to give him a slightly weathered appearance, with muted colors and faded metal embroidery.
Painting this gentleman was fun and I am happy how he turned out. Hope you like it.
Happy painting!
Sven

Excellent painting Sven. First one I've seen painted. Didn't do much for me when I saw the unpainted photos, but my opinion has changed. This is a nifty little bust.
