Landsknecht bust by R.L.

[Robert Laclavik]

Hi folks, I must confess, me too)))
You guys are big inspiration for me and so I started this popular bust too. Here are some first touches on the face, but still much to be done on that. I toned it a bit to the violet and hope it will come out interesting. Hope to pass zou more photos of the finished face soon.

Wonderful to see some of our best painters interpreting such a classic bust.
