Great start Geuff. I painted this one myself some time ago; my first attempt at painting a female face. Fun to do. I'll be following with great interest.

Hi Geoff

Seems to be a popular piece to paint , never seen it in the resin so looking forward to seeing painted versions

Happy benchtime

Thanks Guys, I meant to buy it over a year ago but never did, but very pleased with it.

Yes the female face was interesting to paint also for the first time, but I think I managed to get it looking perhaps a bit too glam.

I will get Nap to post pics for me as I am still having problems.

Cheers

I had a thought that my older camera had no problems so I charged it up and "HURRAY" it's worked.

So here are pics of the finished bust and dead pleased I am with it.





Thanks for all your nice comments and likes.

Cheers
A happy Geoff

Hi Geoff

Thanks for sharing

Nap

Have a look at her right side hair strands ...think a see a bit of filler in 2nd one ..mind you there's one n the other side as well ....hair bands ?

 

[Pilgrim53]

I have this bust so interested to see how this develops; good start.

 

[Pilgrim53]

Missed the later pics; nice job. Did you research any alternative colours? I am thinking there is plenty of leeway with yellow or green!

Thanks Nap, I was slow this time, last posting was Friday and I have had 6-7 painting sessions since then.

You have answered your own question again, yes they are hairbands, three in total.

Many thanks, no I did her as per the boxart but it never occurred to me to do her any other colour but I like that idea.

Indeed Pilgrim..and not just Napoleonic 1st Empire , there's also ACW and French 3rd Empire

Think this might have been a reference for the sculpt

This is a good read ..

This Osprey book from the elite series was scheduled release in 2004 but personally never seen it available which is a shame
