Officer Anglo-Zulu War 1879

[MalcC]

After adding some final detail this morning and painting the badge for the base, the bust is now
finished.
I really enjoyed painting this one, lots of textures in the casting.

Thanks Nap.

I'm really trying to concentrate and get the faces looking half decent in acrylics. Fingers crossed I can make a step forward on my
next project. .......coming very soon........sooner then you think .

He looks good, Malc. Lots of projects going. How do you keep all those balls in the air?

Its not all down to speed, with the poor weather we've been having, and not looking after the grandchildren, I've had a little more time to spend at the bench.
Also the new Redgrass lamp doesn't cause any eye strain, which has meant I can paint for longer.

Back on Grandad duty tomorrow, so things will be returning to normal.
