A Kylo Ren bust!? How do I get my grubby little mitts on one o' dem? The work on that looks amazing btw. As with all your other projects. Awe inspiring work to say the least.

Thank you both, as for the Ren bust, I sculpted it myself. I may try to make another one to see if I can do a better job but that won't be for a while. Here's some more progress on our templar friend:

Yeah, I will probably do it again to try to get the mask details more accurate. It's a pain in the ass when you don't know what you're doing.

Started working on the templar's left arm now, don't worry about missed highlights and shading because nothing is finished yet:

With the templar half way finished it's time to start a new project. Because that's how it works, right?

This is the Templar Knight In Jerusalem bust from Young Miniatures, I'll be painting him as Robert IV of Sablé which really only means I'm painting his crest on the shield.

bgc, Maenas, 10, thank you. Been doing a lot of studying to get these minis done up proper. More work on the head, it's all put together now. Also had to re-work some highlights because of the way the head is tilted once placed on the body:

Thank you all! Alright, moved on to the shield. Here's where I'm at now, the yellow squares will have a blue eagle. Once that's done I'll do shading and weathering.

Here's the position it will be in once attached to the body:

And here's a bit you will never see once attached, but the sculptor took time and effort to make it look nice so I should too:

Wood looks great!
Yellow is maybe a bit too bright (fluorescent) maybe, but that could be a photo/lighting issue. I can't point out anything else ^^

Just found this WIP.
Another Bust painter and a really good one too :)

I wanted to buy the SF-Templer but was really afraid of painting shadows on white. You did a wonderful job on that.
The historic templer was also on my tobuy list once.

And here's a bit you will never see once attached, but the sculptor took time and effort to make it look nice so I should too:
Thats the spirit!

Excellent colouring on the face. I'd have to agree that the yellow on the shield might be a bit too vibrant though.
Awesome stuff either way.
