Avelonian Recruit Bust - Crystal Brush 2012 54mm+ entry

This bust by Alkemy/Kraken was my entry for the large scale (54mm and above) category in the Crystal Brush competition at Adepticon. I think this may well be the best technical painting I have done and although I didnt receive an award for him at the show, I am still really pleased with the way he turned out. All acrylic and 100% brush painted, I was pretty chuffed with the smoothness of the flesh tones in particular, but I also like the way the painting has helped emphasise the haunted look on his face. For me a real 'horror's of war' piece

Awesome mini. Looks much better in person than on this photo. It's a shame they don't have separate category for busts... it would won for sure.
