Very nice job!

Thank you, but the sculpting is all Young's work!
This bust is predominantly made up of spare parts from 2 of Young's 1/10 scale kits (the MG34 and MG42 Gunners respectively) with a panzerfaust and Model 24 grenade from Reedees miniatures. The award and K98 pouches are scratch built. The panzerfaust decals are home made (printed on thin paper) as is the armband and collar tabs (thin plasticard). The scarf and bandage are made from layers of 3-ply tissue paper set with a pva/water mix. Colours and mixes are all made from the Vallejo range.

Dave nice finish to the bust, I like the tropical uniform and sand coloured helmet.

The decal on the Panzerfaust look very good.

All the best
