An excellent bit of work Davie, the eyes are fantastic, really got him looking like Jack Aubrey.
Very good indeed.
Hope to see it next week, he should be finished by then.

I really like what your doing with the various color washes/glazes around the eyes with him, it really changes the whole feeling of the basic face sculpt to a tired and war weary look. Much more interesting then a straight up painting job IMHO.

Thanks Richard for your keen observations,tried to use a different style of painting from my norm.For anyone who hasn't done a bust Young's are hard to beat.

Cheers David
