Hi Ya Ian
Hows things? I take it this is another of Phil's sculpts. Looks to be an amazing piece, even better than some of his previous ones, love the dynamics of him holding his weapon above the head and about to use his other hand to help cross the stream. When you say 140mm, is that the height of what this would be if a full figure, or the height of the bust on its own?

Morning folks...
sorry about the bright lights my fault, try again!!!!!..hes crossing a fast running river/creek pushing rubbish away as it flows into him...the casting of the water will be a light brown transparent to give the effect of depth, while any detail painting could be done on the underside, with small detail on the surface, its just working in reverse!!!!!
will post some better photos ASP....
any thoughts appreciated..Phil..

Hi Phil,

This looks to be a re-working of your "Moonlight" bust, or is it an entirely new piece?

Either way, its a great bust.

 

[LAXMAN05]

awesome!... very nice job. look forward to some better pictures! Would like to see the piece he is holding. Great sculpting.

Tony - total new figure mate but Moon light is its instigator -that one was a one off but this one is commercial
One more figure to show tony but this one is a PW special one off so will post for Phil late this week to keep clear of his 'commercial ' sculpts

This looks great Phil! The 'body English' looks just right for someone wading through water.
