Spot on mate. Much as I admire the modern trend of acrylics and the results I still think oils, when used properly, are more lifelike and yours is the perfect example. Superb.

How hard it is to paint as well! I would describe the painting of this bust as super realistic. I like also the character. Excellent David.

Hi all,
was lucky enough to hold this in my sweaty paw on Monday.
It's genuinely a superb piece of painting and as has been noted the skin tones are utterly convincing.
It's on the small side for a 1:10, a single casting with a beautifully sculpted face that as you can see provides a great 'canvas' for bust painters.
Cheers
Derek

Just goes to show how good oils are when used correctly, so much life in the skin and eyes, I bet it looks even better in the flesh.
