[ChrisP]

Hi again guys, the last weeks i had the opportunity to paint for commision this nice bust produced by MitchesMilitaryModels in 200m.It depicts a crimean war veteran Sgt John Breese who lost his right arm and is based on the famous photographs.It's all painted in acrylics, the colors aren't bright and glossy in real, it's in the photos because of the flash light of the camera.Thanks for looking, Chris.

That's a great piece of work, the metallics are first class and I especially like the work on the crossbelt.
