Hannibal Reworked

[painter x]

Hey guys awhile back I painted a Hannibal bust for a client. After looking it over for a few weeks I decided to make some changes. I made the hair lighter fixed the eyebrows and other various changes Also this time around much more pleasing pics. Let me know what you guys think before he ships off. Thanks for looking

maybe you could do something to the hair that i looks more real
but this is the best hannibal paintjob i´ve ever seen

Yea the hair doesnt look real but that is a nice paintup

I think the hair is the biggest problem on this bust (in general, not just this paint job, which is stunning). Correct me if I'm worng, but wasn't Hopkins' hair thin enough at the time to see the scalp thorugh the hair..? That - I think - is the challenge with the sculpted hair...

Thanks guys I really do like the way this came out. Thanks Chewcy yes the eyes are painted. You guys are right about the hair, painting sculpted hair and making it look real is not the easiest thing to do. INMO its impossibile. I have another one of these Im going to do I plan on adding real hair on it. Thanks again.
