Very very nioce David, congratulations.
Please if you are so kind .... What mark is this bust?
Than you and congratulations again
 
David, this is just awesome! Great details, great subject, well executed. If I may, I think the pose of the hand is just a tad "stiff". I know hands are tough, small point on a great piece!

Thanks Guys for all your very positive comments.This bust was originally produced by Dave Armstrong but I think is now part of the Friendship Models range.Thanks for your comments Jay, but I did not sculpt this piece Im just the painter.

Cheers David
 
Fantastic work Dave. I too, have read the 3 part series by Conn Iggulden and find it great inspiration for any Mongol subject.

I am working on the 90mm Ghengis by Pegaso.
 
HAHA!! I've just finished that series of books as well, and was inspired to buy the Young miniatures bust. I must say that I like this one better, didn't know it existed!!! You have done a beautiful job on this, top work
