Wow, that's beautiful; the stone texture is really convincing.

Impressive! The texturing is awesome, and I like the depth of field effect. Nose looks just a touch askew. But, really, great stuff.

amazing texture work, and I like the play with focus, it adds to the depth.

Good work

Thanks for all the nice comments. They are really appreciated

an excellent work, you are very good
great texture work bring us more ! i wanna see something you do for fun

it's very realistic.

Very nice! Convincing as a photograph, I had to double-check to make sure it was painted. ^__^ Beautiful work on the details and texture!

i love doing studies of greek busts. never painted one though. this is really beautiful work. love the handling of the paint, or digital paint. looks like marble. it feels very much real, especially loving the fact that the front is hyperrealistically rendered and that it fades into the back. the right shadow of the nose sticks out a bit because it's a bit rigid/flat compared to the rest of it. beautiful work.

all praising has been made so i'll just give some crits. i think you're missing some more volumes on the lips...look closer, you've got some darker tonalities too. also, the mouth is misplaced, could have been easily avoided if the basic construction lines would have been ok. and yeah, the nose could have been a bit more refined

bottom, line, i'm looking forward to more stuff from you, preferably something original not a copy

excelente, es hasta bastante mejor que la foto! +10
