Face app and smiling busts

Good morning Jungle,

recently I found the so called "faceapp".
A funny tool where you can play around with faces of your friends and of course your own.

I thought about doing this to some busts of mine that I have painted in the past and let them smile. While doing this I had so much fun you can not imagine and I realized that our figure world is packed with serious looking figures all around. I mean is smiling not healthy? Hope this makes you smile ...

Original sculpt of Laszlo by FER Miniatures that I have painted in 2017:



Some more that made me jiggle and wiggle ...





















Smile more and to the sculptors outthere - even sculpting teeth is a pain in the ass - sculpt more smiling faces!

Keep on happy painting!
um

    Hahahah cute. Always wise not to take the hobby too serously. I like what this app did to my favourite piece of the bunch: the Inuit with the fish. That's a smile that says "dinner's gonna be big tonight!"

    Now some of the others... the result are definitely more disturbing.

    Haha, so funny :D Figuremakers need to implement more smiles in their products.

    Congratulations, you just brought the art of miniature painting up to a whole new level.

    One question though, I haven`t seen your trademark "leafs" lately on your pieces?

    Hi Roman, sorry it was a poor attempted humor from me.

    The trademark "leaves" I was referring to were like these:

    I found them cool. They were really your trademark.

    Ahh now I see ... I am very sorry to not catch the joke. Sometimes, while growing older I feel more and more german. Not any sense of humor anymore ... ridicilous me ;D ... thanks for the clarification. Well, not using the leaves very often anymore though!
