Friends, hi everyone!
Thanks for the kind words to my previous work!
Glad to show the third figure from a series of asian girls.
These figures found their fans and therefore the series will be expanded to five figures!I hope no less interesting characters are waiting for us!

Really Amazing - I already was fascinated by your two previous female warrior busts ! Count me in as a loyal buyer ! Currently (at least in my opinion) you are the best sculptor for historical Japanese figures ! I like how you approach the subject at hand from a different angle, away from the standard commander stuff and mostly without battle field armour - we have seen that much too often and mostly full of mistakes... I just received your impressive "Family of Samurais" and will definitely order every bust of your female samurai series. May I take the opportunity to recommend to you for further inspiration the chambara movies of Hideo Gosha ! My avatar comes from his "Hunter in the Dark" movie where the pictured "assassin" uses a long bamboo spear, striking through the panelling of a bridge into the ribcage of his target, who is being transported in a palanquin ! A visually thrilling opening of an otherwise brilliant Samurai movie.
Keep on the good work !

Hello Ruslan,
One question about your "Naginata" bust: what's the idea behind the little patches of cloth (?) flying away from the bust at the bottom. I have never seen such and I'm scratching my head how to paint those !? Can you give me a lead here ? Are they just based on your imagination, something ornamentic ?

Very nice I`m impressed.

Have fun,
