Greetings friends

This is an attempt of me to restore Nefertiti's bust, with absolute respect to the original. The original bust is painted limestone covered in stucco. It shows Nefertiti, the wife of the pharaoh Akhenaten, and today you can see it in the Egyptian Museum of Berlin. It is one of the most copied pieces of ancient Egypt, and Nefertiti herself became one of the most famous women of the ancient world. I have restored all the details and damages on her hat, added the cobra that is missing entirely, resculpted her ears and eyes and sculpted the jewels . I added an extra base and carved her name in hieroglyphs. I hope you like her. This was one of the most rewarding and fun sculpts i have done for a while, even though i was stepping on someone elses footsteps.History is beautiful people.. Enjoy!

The model comes pre-supported for resin users.

FDM users will have to use supports to the jaw, ears and the cobra. Next model will be Commodus which i already started working on last night. Thank you all for your support.

Love, Fotis
