Hi to all. This one of my last works. The bust is very well known by all , I guess. Is sculpted by Jo-Won-Jung and casted in resin. I painted it using acrylics and I only have changed the color of hair and eyes from the box art.
All comments welcome.

Very nicely done work. The flesh, cloth texture, and weathering on helmet are all well painted. Congrats!
 
I think this is about the best I have seen of this piece. I really like the face on this bust but I think the sculptor made a mistake going to the waist but truncating the arms so short. It gives the piece a bit if a Monty Python black knight feel. Your work on the textures is terrific...love the helmet.

Very well painted Edu! The uniform and helmet are particularly nice, in my opinion. I'm no fan of this bust, but your painting of it is great. I also like that you chose brown eyes and hair, instead of the obligatory blue and blonde.

Cheers,
Adrian
 
Thank you swralph, Jason, Colin and Adrian for your positive feedback. The bust comes with two alternative heads, one for the glssses and the other without. I don´t know for sure but I have the impression that the one for the glasses has bigger eyes to create the effect of the lens before. I think is a very good bust really, highly recomended.
Here are some pics of the SBS.
