WOW........I was wondering how you could top the Landsknecht......now I know. Awesome sculpting Yury. I love how you have his head turned and his pigtails hanging......beautiful work my friend.

 

[gordy]

Stunning!

Now you have to show us some progress photos!

I really like the structure of the fur, hair and beard.

The chainmail looks a little odd?

As a customer I think it could be a good idea to include and optional helmet, conical with removeable noseguard?

I agree with Janne, That is a gorgeous face and I'd hate to hide it behind the mask!

Beautiful work!

Congrats!!

Yury

I must agree with the others. Please add an optional or another helmet. It would be a pity if the face is hidden

Stunning, I want one

Yury

Is this going to be available as a commercial piece through Authorsculpt? I really hope so. Beautiful face and chainmail, like the way the hair flows and the hanging of the hair braids.

Cheers

Oke,
This one is gonna be another blow in my wallet.
If possible leaf the noseguard off. It's a shame to hide such a great face.

Simply stunning sculpting here! Yuri, I'm with Guy, this is a perfect follow up to your Landsknecht. Your tallents truly shine here, well done.

[barbados_wild]

wow really nice Yury,

 

[Theodoros]

A must have it ! Such an expressive face !Yury, my compliments...

 

[kansas kid]

Incredibly beautiful . . .

Whoa, Nellie. . . this is one beautiful figure. And I agree with Housecarl, it
would be so much fun to paint in the hands of one of you truly skilled artists.
The variety of surfaces and textures is just so wonderful. A Truly exciting
bust. One of the best Vikings I've seen.

I was floored when I saw this bust. The face is just so life like, even just primed you can see character in it. The detail of the hair, beard and cloak is reaaly nice and probobly the best treatment of this that I've seen. The brooch is just superb and worthy of note as well. The helmet though........blah. All that detail and you dropped the ball on the helmet in my opinion. There is nothing to the occular and the skull is just so plain. This warrants some work on the helmet and a quick redo of some research will pop up some pretty elaborate trimmings, furniture and decoration to helmets like this. Based upon the work in the brooch, I think the helmet warrants similar attention.
Now, that being said, I think it a crime to hide that face behind an occulared helmet. I know that if I get this bust, my first job would be to toss the occular and fashion either a nasal or just leave the skull.

Yuri, you rock as an artist and I wish I had the talent of your failures. This is one of the best I've seen to date.

In my communication with Yury he stated he is still adding detail to the bust. He posted a WIP as it was at posting time.
