The Roman emperor Hadrian looking annoyed at himself in the Louvre. The dark one is bronze, the light one behind is marble. I left the XP2 colour cast because I liked the effect.

Casting . . .

Peter, The cast makes an engaging 'shadow' of one bust to another. The detail is marvelous, by the way---why did you not enter this in the portraits contest?
