WIP Verlinden - German Infantry, 1914

[RossM]

Here are some WiP shots of Verlinden's old German infantry bust, c. 1914. This piece was sculpted by the late Derek Holmes. My reason for painting it is the face. He is definitely 'smiling Albert'! Painted in oils with still much to do.

Cracking start there, the face is full of character and you've brought it to life rather well.

That is definitely a characterful face.

Hi Ross

One of my favourite Verlinden busts ...it’s the face on him ....must see if I can get one !

Good start on the flesh and I like the uniform colour so far

Looking forward to seeing more

Happy benchtime
