Hi Brian....just a thought.....gave you considered going flat black on the bust support and top of the plinth to reduce the visibility of the figure as a bust when observing through the front window? Just an idea for you to consider. Cheers

Truly excellent idea for setting the half figure - I wish I'd thought of it! Wonderful painting too of course - I wish I could emulate it!

Perhaps your best bustorama yet. The setting and bust fit together perfectly to tell the story. Great work!

Cheers,

Great work Brian.
Just shows what can be done when you've only got half a figure.
The way you've painted him really shows what a rough time he's had. Inspired.
