Completed U.S WW2 Medic with Dog

[mil-mart]

Here's the pictures of the completed bust, I've really enjoyed the challenge with this one as it's my first attempt at sculpting a dog and an American helmet, hopefully both to a reasonable level. I made the dog more puppy like by enlargeing the ears, face and body.
Many thanks for looking and I welcome all and any comments .

Cheers Ken

Oh gee, Ken. I'm late getting in on this one. Last Grand Slam of the year is
on TV. . . my excuse. But you've done a beautiful job. Even the little pooch
is very good. Well done,

great little sculpt,

such a pleasure to see the human side of a medic; you have done justice to the original photographers shot, IMO.

The dog looks nice animated, even while being nursed for the photo, and I think you would be hard pressed to capture the expression on his face.

Bravo!

Very nice! The dog is superb!!!

The helmet looks a little tall, looks is not the same as is

You created a "LIFE" Bust. The piece is full of character and holding the doggy is just put a different perspective in this bust and it is ASIAN..ha ha love it...how many Asian face do we see in Bust...totally great

Ken,
i am always amazed at how well you capture the essense of a character and this pair is no exception.i must say that WW2 M1 helmets are difficult to sculpt beause of their subtle curves and shape ,maybe a little more work on the helmet perhaps.
Look forward to its completion
