I have no idea what this will be....

[Cheesey153]

I've been making a 1/9 head from Fimo but I have no idea what it will eventually become. Well, it will surely become a bust, but you know what I mean....

Lex Luther? Dr. Moriarty?

Looks good so far.

 

[clubcat]

Whomever he becomes, he's going to have a very striking head. Looks good.

Looking great, with Fimo are you sculpting all at once or bake periodically to save state ?

 

[Meehan34]

would be a great Roman.

 

[Cheesey153]

he probably won't end up being bald, I just fancied making a complete head. I expect one day he'll have hair and a hat. Or a hat and no hair. Or hair and no hat...

I did the vast majority of this all at once. Only the ears and eyes were added after the first baking.

 

[Cheesey153]

would be a great Roman.

Funny that. My wife said the same.

 

[housecarl]

He does look very Roman Centurian-esque.
Carl.

 

[Diegoff]

Agree, a roman.

 

[Tommi]

Will look good whatever

'Allo Cheesey,

I agree, he looks very classical.

He's got that look that's either intellectual or a well meaning thug! So Greek robes and curly locks maybe, or else a 1789 liberty bonnet with a tattoo 'LIBERTE OU LA MORT' across his chest!

Cheers,
Jon.

I vote for Stevie Ray...He is wearing also a great hat.

Hi Cheesey - Great face and another Roman vote from me.

 

[Cheesey153]

Oh lordy, it looks like I'll have to try to find some Roman reference material....

 

[Kevin D.]

Roman officer with helmet cradled in crook of left arm so that this great head is left uncovered?

just my 2 cents worth. Great scuplt!

Perhaps you could bring it along to Gravesham on Saturday for a closer look???

 

[Dan Morton]

It would require some modifications, but I've always thought this guy deserved a bust. This is a 10th Bavarian Regiment Corporal of a Machine Gun crew. The doo dads on his hat are mostly Austrian badges of various kinds, so possibly he had friends in Austrian units or was maybe Austrian by birth. I think the look on his face is blood-curdling - - honest!

All the best,
Dan

Nice, Cheesy. Maybe check your symmetry on the jawline. The left (his right) looks more pronounced than the other. Of course, this could be the angle of the pic.

would be a great Roman.

That's a good suggestion.

Thanks for the info
