Much thanks to all of you
He is indeed very nice!! and Charles you are right about at least one thing, he's got his mother's eyes

As for being my most realistic work, certainly, but then that work might bury other weaker works whose SBS I post here for quite some time

Hehe
Nice one

Oh, and I gather what you think would be good pics for this SBS, we probably wouldn't
Congratulations Jean-Bernard. I guess there will be a little less output of work for a while until you find your feet...

Well Dave, at least i am pretty sure nobody is going to put this miniature in the dustbin when I pass out

in the meantime, he's also a formidable base for digital photography work
