Sculpture finishing touches - Bust of Voltaire by Houdon

[thurek]

Hi everyone,

First post here. I am currently developing my showreel and this is for the “organic modelling part” of it. I want to finish this one off, but I’m not sure what is missing. It’s supposed to be bronze or marble statue, so it probably doesn’t need any skin pores, right? Where would you continue this sculpt ?

Thank’s !

I also sculpted in some asymmetrical details. I will post an update when it’s finished
