101st Airborne, Nuts Planet 1/10

[Bigmick]

I thought I'd started a WIP for him but I've looked and apparently not.
So, here we have another Nuts Planet 1/10 scale bust, this time 101st Airborne who bears a striking resemblance to Damian Lewis and his character from Band of Brothers, allegedly.
Everything was painted with Vallejo acrylics, the alternate head is included in the box and represents a 101st Airborne "Pathfinder" with Mohawk and war paint, I'm still getting the hang of flesh tones and just realised I didn't put any stubble on Damian, oh well, he had a shave that morning.




Regards.

Mick.

Nice work on this great bust.
Good colours also.
In his own book (Richard Winters Beyond Band of Brothers) he mentioned that the one thing he always did was shave, so you've got that bang on.

Thanks for showing,
Gells

Nicely done Mick

Did you magnetise the alternate heads?

Hi Ralph, thank you very much, I would do another, but not straight away lol.
Hi Billy, nope, the neck is drilled out, I ran out of brass rod with Damian so used a nail as the pin on the Pathfinder head lol.


Regards.

A more than competent job!

This is a heck of a fine sculpt and could be intimidating for many.
