    Default female face "study"

    Now the time to take up the challenge of the human face (in relief) has come, so I took this piece of walnut scrap and .......this is the result:

    There is a lot to be said for what's in your blood; I see Botticelli, Rosetti, a bit of Giotto, Donatello Annunciation - Donatello Gallery - Religious Painting Art View C

    Thanks.

    Thank you guys.

    Artme and Movay: I think you are really exaggerating .

    Anyway my model was a marble sculpture of the italian neoclassical artist Lorenzo Bartolini:

    This is the biggest waste of time I've ever (not) seen. Not only are the illustrations of peoples' work gone from a saved 'sticky' site ... and lets face it, what's the point of saving a 'sticky' site called 'Carvers Gallery' without the 'Gallery'... but every instructional WIP and 'How to' post has had the illustrations wiped. I rarely get upset over stuff, but this is really baking my bickkies. Why on earth did all those talented carvers spend all that time sharing their knowledge and skills, contributing to what they assumed would be a reference for others? I'm beyond disappointed... I'm disgusted!

    It has happened to a lot of other people too, not just the carvers.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    That is not an acceptable answer... its not even an excuse. I'm thinking its time to move on to other sites...

    It wasn't an excuse.

    I don't think it was done on purpose.

    I suspect that some other forums may have a similar problem.

    At one stage I had more than 1,000 photos amounting to nearly 1.8Gb in attachments,
    I now have 29.74 MB, in the form of 218 uploaded attachments.

    It is certainly disappointing but doing a dummy spit & leaving isn't going to solve anything.
