massoud the afghan

[romain]

hi all,

this is one of my latest project, and one of my favorite.
It is massoud, this fantastic man who has stand against soviet and after against the taliban . He has been killed 2 day before the world trade center attack, by taliban .

I would have loved to have more life in this head, but at this scale and only with the sculptjob it is sooo difficult .....

Great face. Is this sculpted from wax? The only thing that may be off, and I may be wrong is the diagonal positioning of the eyes. They seem to run in a diagonal line towards the nose.~Gary

There's something sad in the expression but very well done.

Rom, I think this looks VERY promissing! It looks to be very well sculpted so far. I would agree with Gary though, the angle of the eyes looks to be off just a bit (they look to turn down too far towards the nose). Great start though.

hi all !

thank for your comments

an old picture for the scale

concerning the eyes, massoud has a very special expression on his face and on his eyes, realy difficult to sculpt at this scale
