Nice bust, and superb painting. I agree with Martin about the eyes.
This bust allows to play with different colors for the turban and shirt.

Steve it is a miniature bust based in this character


An Italian television series of 1976 named "Sandokan" and also a 1977 movie with the same name . The main role was played by indian actor Kabir Bedi:

The Character "Sandokan" was created in the XIX century by Emilio Salgari and action happens in colonial India. I red all the books, and they are outstanding adventure books. As a matter of fact, Kabir Bedi was highly praised as he is incredibly alike the fictional character Emilio Salgari Created.

If you have the chance, read the books. But start with the very first. As it happens currently with the Harry Potter saga, all these Sandokan books are chronological interconnected.


Happy reading! And happy painting! This bust is one to add to the shelves ASAP!!!

Brilliant!
