He looks rough but I wonder what the other guy looks like!
Nice result and dont do any picture hanging in case you hit that thumb with the hammer, imagine the pain.

Great painting Brian.
I really like your weathering painting. Is your style, a sign of identity, and is something very difficult to obtain. Congratulations.

Excellent work as always Brian. I really like the weathered look that you achieved. I wouldn't want to meet up with this guy.

Really pleased to hear you've recovered enough from your injury to finish this Brian and it's well up to your usual high standard.
I could easily pick one of your gems out in an identity parade of busts. That's meant in a good way.

Stunning work Brian! The wear and tear, weathering, and just overall worn look to the piece is perfect. Tons of character

Regards,
Phil

Many thanks phil,that's what I was aiming for in the piece,the aged,ragged look that you associate with solider from this period

Perhaps smudger comes from your amazing ability to make your pieces so dirty in a realistic way.......LOL. I know it's not true Brian but as others have said you have a very distinct painting style and that is something so few people achieve-a sign of rare talent.
Always enjoy seeing your pieces mate - really inspirational.

Top job Brian.
I always like the parade ground effect you manage to achieve.
Glad your Mojo is back mate.
