First Id like to say sorry to all for the trouble with the busts - the Geisha had a bench accident (she lost her head) and it turned out that a remodelling of her necklace would be too difficult (anyways, thanks for the hint, Frank!). Recently a "plan B" landed on my bench, so Ill give it a go - I recognized that AG started a similar project too, nice. Yury Serebryakov is an incredible sculptor, and the bust was a real bargain. Not cheap but for what she is, it would have cost much more elsewhere... great. And it has tons of details to take care of - especially the fur. Ill leave the eye/nose protection shield off - just look at his face, would be a real pity to hide it. Except for metal areas I use Vallejo and GW paints - as always.

So sorry about Pacific Beauty!!! I was afraid you couldn't handle her... let me take a good care of her next time ok buddy?
The Viking bust is just too good that it will be a pleasure to have it painted! I am here now...

Welcome, welcome... I added a scratched nose protection, and painted the fur. It had been painted wet-in-wet, that means grey base coat, with brown washing while it was still wet. I let it dry, added another brown washing, then drybrushing with grey/light grey and white (decently!) followed.

Hi Lucas!
Sorry to hear about the accident of your "Japanese Girl". Yes,Yury Serebryakov' works deserve all the consideration and you made a good job there (the eyes particularly looks excellent). Keep it on, my friend! Nicolae

Top class sculpt work ! This Viking bust looks very fine and detailed.
Your paint job so far looks good too, the eyes are very much alive !
The nose protection is a great addition to the helmet and the shape of it is perfect.
Nice one Tigrazor ! Glad we have two Vikings raiding the Busty Art group build.

Tig, please tell me how you painted the helmet man, it looks so goddamn metal ! The chainmail : stunner ! Glad you like it. Its pretty simple, all colors are Humbrol MetalCote colors: -the whole figure was primed in black-first comes GunMetal- 50/50 GunMetal/27003 (27003 is a lighter GunMetal so to say) - pure 27003-veeery decently Chrome (27001) -after all is done, I pinwashed the shadows with dark brown and black (sometimes mixtures) from Games Workshop.
