Baba Roga?

Not a Bogey MAN...

"Baba Roga" (which I remember my aunts scaring me with in dark stormy nights when I was a small boy in the Old Country) is an old witch woman, and your sculpt looks "dead on".

I only know of Baba Yaga from John Wick (I once saw him kill three men with a PENCIL! ), I hadn't heard of Baba Roga but yes, this bust fits the bill.

I should have final shots tomorrow in the Model museum now that the headscarf, hair, etc. are in place.

They are the same mythical character - her name is slightly different depending on which Slavic language tradition you consult (yes, I had to look that up )

"Baba Yaga" is the same character as "Baba Roga" "Yaga" is apparently the Russian variant, while "Roga" is the Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian variant.

Anyways ... it was scary when my Aunt Rada would call out - as the lighting flashed and the thunder clapped outside in the Summer night and her house was dark - "Baba Roga's coming!" - then we would dive under the bed cover and laugh together ... I must have been 4 or 5 ... *sigh* ... where have the years gone?

I looked at it. [Then my wife revived me with some smelling salts]. Go to the other thread for my reaction.
