Couple of pics with the flesh still being worked on , hair/ lips still to do as well ....but it’s getting there

Once I’m happy with flesh , will do hair/eyebrows , recheck the hat , do badges/buttons then medals and it’s finished

As always all comments welcome

Thank you , I’m pleased with it , always harder to paint a actual person ...especially where references aren’t in colour !

Thanks Nigel , might do a tiny bit more on the hair ..little more graying possibly
