Hi mate
That is bloody stunning truly excellent art work at all levels the additional creative woth window etc is genius mate I agree should be a gold it's a sad that work is judged like that although they didn't mind individuals painting in a style which was specific for being photographed
Fantastic work mate

I'm past caring about the judging now Chris,if it gets an award then it's a bonus,they have particular styles they like and don't like,I think I fall somewhere in between

Awesome work. Brian, you have done a great job on the painting the bust and building the scene.

Superb bit of work, from initial concept, through the whole w.i.p., finishing with a truly eye-catching piece.
It's got the 'Smudger' stamp all over it.

Cheers,
Andrew

Chaps, we have witnessed a masterclass in concept, painting and setting. Not much gives me goosebumps these days, but this does. Just great, Brian.
I so look forward to seeing this close up some time this year.
