Completed Critique Officer, 5th Bat., 60th (Royal American) Regiment 1812, Stormtroopers

Great intense look to the eyes. Was going to suggest the lips were too purple-y but others have seen this, too. Only suggestion would be that there should be a little more pink-red around the ear edges.

Overall enviable.

Jeff

Hi Jeff, thanks for your constructive comment. I will the pink-red around the ears on my next bust (and also in smaller scale if possible)

Excellent painting Christian. The eyes have it on this one; a very intense stare. Well done. I have always liked the uniforms of the 95th, 60th, and KGL rifle regiments. I'll have to add this one to my ever growing list.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your nice comment. Unfortunately it seems to me, that this bust is no longer available from stormtrooper, cause it isn't shown on their website. Instead they have the officer of the 95th in spain. (It's on my wishlist). Also MMM has released a 120mm KGL figure which I haven't seen announced here on PF. See picture.

I think it's really well done Christian and I love the intensity of the yes. The green in particular stands out - what did you use for this?

Cheers

Hi Huw,
Thank you very much for your comment. I have used Scale 75 Colors - Green is Black Forrest with brown leather for darkening the tone. Shadows with black leather, lights with sherwood green. See also my answer to Naps question.

Thanks Christian - apologies I should have read your answer to Nap's posting first.

Very well done Christian, I like this a lot. The lips look odd but maybe the camera has exaggerated the colour?

Hi Keith,
thanks for your comment. I have to say, the camera IS NOT guilty, it was the lazy painter who used the wrong color.....
