This wooden bust has the most amazing detail. You can't help but admire the craftsmanship of the carver.

Look at all the edges and seams on the tunic. See the collar pin behind the tie?

How's the realism of the pocket flap! Even the button under the sam browne has the appearance of being pushed into the tunic by the leather strap.
