If I had his head pointing in the direction of where his finger is pointing, my eyes would stay on him and the figures in the background would be just a quick second glance. Then my eyes would be drawn immediately back to the mounted figure, thus making him the center of the scene. I turned the horse as much as possible so as to not make the rider stretch his head too much and still give him some profile.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358310352981705483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755339669613897589.post-5352382342005379172009-07-31T14:53:07.768-07:002009-07-31T14:53:07.768-07:00Jason, Nice piece.

Although it helps to direct the viewer towards the rest of the figures in the scene. Can't wait for the next spoonful. ~Gary :)Gary Dombrowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09595511328277618342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755339669613897589.post-53120817847778009392009-07-31T09:16:28.756-07:002009-07-31T09:16:28.756-07:00Thanks RJ.

I'm just "spoon feeding" the project:)<br /><br />Yes, three of the heads are Historex and the other...I'm not sure. I'll have to check.<br /><br />The horse is from Micheal Roberts. Great sculpture but a few pits and bubbles in the casting.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358310352981705483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755339669613897589.post-52779985164372489932009-07-31T08:47:17.038-07:002009-07-31T08:47:17.038-07:00Hello Jason,
