Thanks for the tips Mike! I'll revisit this bust and see if I can improve the eyes as per your suggestions and I'll certainly keep your tips in mind for the future. I need to check out the Hickok bust and see if that is also in need of adjustment.

Your suggestions are always welcome.

Thanks,
Ken

Well, I repainted the eyes as per Mike Good's suggestion. At least I tried to follow the suggestion.

Wyatt's left eye is squinting a bit more than the right so they look a little different. I think it was worth the effort and I'll keep the suggestions in mind on future projects. This may be why I haven't done any busts in the last 6 years.

I checked the Hickok bust and he appears to be squinting quite a bit making any changes for me difficult, so I'll leave him as is.

Thanks,
Ken

Very nicely painted Ken.
I like the adjustment.
Like Mike, I never paint catch-lights, and only apply a gloss film.

Cheers,
Andrew
