First time wax portrait/Hard Times

[kenkaj]

Hi all.
It's been a while but i thought i would post my first attempt at a portrait in Gary's Mist wax.
Lots to do and it's a big learning curve but thanks for looking. :)

Thanks Paul. I tried to add more skin texture across the upper lip and play with the shadows. My style of sculpting has always been more adding than carving, but i have to admit i love wax. You can almost draw the details in.

Well i have taken the portrait as far as i'm going to just now. He may end up with a body at some point. :wink:

The photo with the cup gives some idea of scale. Approx 1/6
