Gaia 1.0

[jarhead]

Aloa,

this bust comes from JMD and is a great joy to paint. I would call my vision here Gaia.

I hope you like her!

Keep on happy painting!

Amazing mini. Will you one day stop painting as well?

 

[breadhead]

Very impressive paint job on a great (if somewhat bizarre:question bust!

 

[freakinacage]

[Trevor]

Its cool, weird, but cool.

Yeh man, sweet work on a cracking bust

 

[ScottRadom]

Sweet Stuff Amigo! Really stunning work on the eyes, the torso, and the transition to the tentacles! inspiring.

 

[Hinton]

Absolutely incredible. The skin tones are amazing and the face is really expressive. Outstanding work.

 

[Ritual]

Great work on one of my favourite busts! I really like the lighting of this piece. You've emphasised the shapes very nicely. I like the eyes in particular.

If I am to criticise anything, I think the oval shapes on the head look a bit untidy, or rather the contours between the shapes and the skin. Also, I think the angle of the bust is a bit backwards-leaning. But, these are rather minor points.

I love it! Everytime I see this model I think of quadle (spelling?) saying "open your mind". I don't know maybe its that whole alien looking thing. I'm always blown away by Jarhead's work and how great it is.

 

[A Luna]

Holy Crap! That is amazing:O
The only thing which I don't really like are the spots. They look to random and to round. They don't really fit like that. Perhaps if you made them bigger.
But still... :O

Amazing mini. Will you one day stop painting as well?

I guess not :] - thanks for your nice comment...

@all
Really glad you like her - i am totally in love with this bust... oh dear, what a great sculpt with some much ideas to go with... more about that soon...

@Ritual & A Luna
Japp, you got that eagle eye... thanks for your critic view - nothing to say about that - the places you've spotted sound logicly and as i am painting this bust up again (another version) i feel your words in the back of my brush while doing so - thank you!

Keep on happy painting!

Stunning.... looks alive, that alone tells how great your painting is. Holy bearer of sandal I wish someday i'll be able to achieve something like that

 

[jarhead]

@DOC
I didn't say she is female, just called it Gaia as far as i can remember - but you are right, somehow i felt a female thing behind Gaia... so no talking about the male looking guys...

@Deanorth
Thank you very much for your nice words...

Keep on happy painting all around the globe!

Very interesting founders-keepers. I would take such in a collection. Where them to buy?

Really glad you like her - i am totally in love with this bust...

As a matter of fact, I think you -did- say it was a girl.

Beautiful piece nonetheless!
