Jan Zizka

[Ulrich]

That is a bust from Golem Art and the sculptor is a member from Pf = offo. The painting is ready but now I must find a special base for it. I had not used the eyepatch, which was in the box, because I like the bust in that version

Cracking job on this Ulrich. The sculpt really captures the character of the man and you've added to this with the painting

I like the leather effect you've achieved and the life you've put into the face.

Cheers,

Beautiful paint work. The leather looks awesome and the skin tone is great for a grizzled veteran. The wounded scarred eye looks terrible and fantastic.

Pardon my ignorance but can you give some background on this man Jan Zizka?

Hi Colin, a few weeks ago was interested myself in finding out about him.
There's a ton of writing,films and statues of the man.
Do s Google......interesting doesn't even begin to cover him. Here's a potted history.
