Very nice bust. I really enjoy the colors on this figure and the flesh is outstanding. If I may, I think the white shirt would look really nice with some kind of striping, I just think it would add something but this is just my own opinion. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Great weatherbeaten look to the face. Often busts seem to be painted blemish-free, as if they're wearing make-up, but this old salt looks like he's seen a few years before the mast. Did you do it with acrylics, oils or what?
