Hi Martyn ,

Well you said it was different and it certainly is ...a 3/4 bust on a 1/2 (approx) horse .

It certainly has an appeal and a really good price for what you get ,

scale is good for this type IMO and a lot of nice details are to be seen

Hope this does well for you at Euro and beyond

Thanks for sharing

Now this is different. I love it (even if it isn't something I would normally paint).

It is novel but it doesn't seem too removed from a "non-bust" figure which would be equally, if not more, impressive.

 

[Oldironsides]

A great contender for best bust of 2014. Should do very well.

Clever idea Martyn and Rob...look forward to seeing this at the weekend.

I'm not sure. It reminds me of one of those dudes you see in a parade wearing a panto horse lower half. Kudos for imagination and daring.

Nicely sculpted piece........the layout reminds of this statue of Francis Marion, The Swamp Fox, who, when this was unveiled, caused some controversy

I can't feel the wind of Mongolian. Sorry

 

[RIKARDO]

Very original version, new king of bust, good luck!

 

[Blind Pew]

Great concept, I can see this doing well.

[Bootneck]

Reminds me of somebody on a fairground ride. Believe it Would look better as a full figure. Sorry.

Peter.

As has been said this is a very good concept because it's something different, which is something I believe we are all looking for.
But I have to agree with gogok, it lacks the dynamic soul and spirit I'd expect to see in such a piece.

 

[ellie]

I know someone who will be getting this (have you seen it Ian lol) something diffireant but have to agree with Pete would be better as a full figure sorry, but should do well.
