Hola!
Hombre Toro by Spherewars - what a model and chaotic mission i loaded upon myself - about 4 days and some additional night time have been needed to finish him in a quick pace during hardcore disciplined working days, but in the end he made it ready for the AFM Mountrouge in Paris.
I somehow transported this emptying myself from powers into the paintjob. I can not tell you how - but this vision i had of Hombre Toro makes him a fighter, a warrior, already beaten but still breathing until his last heartbeat and until the final moment he is kicking ass with everything he got. His death won't matter to his nation as the war still rages on and he was just an unexperienced warrior of the Forest Tribe adding his death to a greater victory against the human race who wants to control the whole world. There are still many others of his nation and they will rise to be free, the old warriors are marching the land and the earth shakes beneath their weight. This young bull soon dies on a rainy day but he made sure that his enemies remember his fury and pride. Hope you like him...

Here comes one megabig photo - click to enlarge...
Many thanks to Spherewars for creating such a great sculpt in my eyes. I will do him again as i already have 3 other visions in plan. The sculpt is really awesome, so dynamic and it really paints itself due pure joy. I also wanted to keep the base simple to enjoy the miniature itself with more attention. I did also focus to paint him i tragic and proud way, guess the intense zenithal light situation transports this athmosphere, at least this is what i've tried.
I hope you like my version - i even did use my own hair on that bull lately. If you want to take a look on the same photos over in the big voting arena, drop me a line there or just want to say hi with your wicked click you can find the overview here and the detailed collage here. I am really looking forward to see many different visions on this wonderful sculpt. I did prepare some more articles while working on this model, but just did not have the time yet to work and prepare them, please be patient, but feel free to ask or say whatever you like or think...
Keep on happy painting! Mooohhh!!
Best Regards
Roman

Wow really cool work!
Wow, such power yet so sad...
that is amazing work Roman. it is so fantastic that you could create such emotion from a bull but I can see the pain and rage and pride this bull has even though it is clear he is on his last breath. I also love the little water effects you added to convey such movement. beautifully done.
To be honest I am not big fan of the sculpt, but you did small miracle! Such great atmosphere you achieved, payed so much attention to detail... Fantastic...
I need to see it live !
He's got poodoo on his butty yeaaaahaaaa !!!
Fantastic sculpt, fantastic paintwork! I just love it and am really looking forward to see it in person! si.
In my opinion there is too many blood, and I can't find focus point :/
It´s a great sculpt with a even greater paintjob! Maybe i will use some real hair for my minis. I really love the little Water details under his hands.
Keep on and thanks for insperations

Out of curiosity, what did you use for the blood? I love the gelatinous effect, mine always look a little flat.
There is so much sadness In his reminding eye. It reminds me of bullfighting arena.
Great work!
Great work here Roman! This is a great sculpt but as usual in Pedro's works, it's many difficult things and you'd solved very good!
great work ...can you explain wich colour you had used for the skin????
plz :-)
Many, many thanks for your nice words... thank you all!
@Darkeldar
I will do an article about using oil colours soon and i am talking about the acrylic basic i have used for the skin, please be patient a little bit as i am busy these days...
Well executed Roman. Full of emotions and atmosphere.
P.S. I sent you an email about this miniature.

wow man! big of ur work... but this one rocks!!!
good work!
Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea
shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She
put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
