Hi guys

Finished this bust an hour ago. Amazing sculpting and casting.

Really happy with how it turned out. Next project is Balian de Ebelin (Orlando Bloom) from Kingdom of Heaven.

Great looking piece Tony. I have this one nearly complete on my bench. The armor scales take a lot of time.

Not surprised you're happy with it Tony - fabulous.

I really like the 'painterly' quality to it (My own personal way of describing something that when you study closely you can see the way the marks have been applied, but as you move out to normal viewing distance it becomes completely unified. It's like some kind of smoke and mirror trick and I love it)
