Nice but no cigar
Great sculpting from Young but I have to say I'm very disappointed with this one. How can you have a bust of Alexander without his signature helmet? and why would anyone spend the cash for a bust of Colin Farrell, well maybe my wife would (laugh).
Come on guys get it together!!!

Alexander
Very nice bust once again, but yes no likeness to the real Alex and dare I say it - a dreadful movie, I was thinking just the other day - never a bust available of Ginger Lacey (Hurricane Fighter Ace) even with part of a Hurricane cockpit surrounding him, James McCudden after all there is already a Werner Voss bust available, or a Lancaster Bomber pilot, I like Tony's suggestions as well of famous movie characters.
Great effort though once again from Young, RobH.

Great sculpt and details as usual from Y.M. but as 'Superhornet' said a couple of posts above - where's the ornate helmet?
I would have bought it like a shot with the option of fitting a helmet (Like they did for their Gladiator bust with optional heads).
As it is, I can do without Colin Farrell in my collection!

Just got my supply of this bust.
It's well up to the usual Young standards as a model whatever your opinion of the movie is!

Excellent, one I will be adding to my collection for sure, I like it for for what it is, a first rate piece of sculpting and casting.

I love the sculpting, which is expertly done. But I gotta say I'm not a fan of these Hollywood likenesses. I'd prefer something more historical. But again, nicely done, and I can certainly see there's a market for this type of subject matter.

I'm with Tommi on this.
I think there is room for this sort of work in the market - especially when it is done to the level that Young reaches in quality.
The Lucky Jack bust by the same sculptor has certainly proved there is a demand.
