Bongo antelope

Finally I've managed to make a bongo antelope. I had to hurry a bit before the removal, but I hope I haven't missed anything. I fell in love with bongos since I've played in Zoo Tycoon :) It is my very first antelope, I hope you will like it

Thank you Harriet for kind words, I'm glad that you like my paintjobs

great job

Great job!

Wow, great job. The model is great, but the face could be narrowed a bit. This is just my opinion though, and your model is still fantastic. (o)):

Thank you very much mdasilva, Bernyto and cattlecollector!

Thank you for pointing this, I have a tendency to make too wide heads and I don't know why Maybe it is because of a way in which I start making a head

what a great bongo (o)):

The pictures I made are bad, this is why the bongo looks not very attractive I'm a bad photographer...

Nice work Agata. Congratulation

I don't know why I loose this topic.
I have to confess that before reading Phillip comment I had the same feeling that your bongo has a sculpting that ressembles a lot your takin. Your figures are very recognizable you have a very marked style. That is not a bad thing for sure. We can find it in a lot of artists and brands. That's the reason why some figures are better than others even when they are made by the same sculptor. Always getting clear that your figure is very nice, I think the sculpting of your takin benefited more from your style than your bongo. However, the painting is fantastic!!!
I love the figure and your style, even it doesn't look in my comment.

Hey guys!
I've been busy with my exams (I'm just after the first one and it was very hard ), but everyday I kept resculpting my bongo sculpture for around 2 weeks. I hope it looks better now. I have resculpted the neck and back, changed the legs' position, and made new horns. I have also painted it once again. I didn't want to make a completely new bongo due to the fact that the figure is quite big and it would be a waste of materials.

Great job! He looks really nice. He is a great improvement of the original sculpt, but the first model was amazing too!
