Bit more putty thrown about ....Lt Larry Brown ( Vietnam) and RHG from Stormtroopers

[Nap]

Hi folks

Quick post been throwing putty about on these

The RHG ....I textured up the crest and added ties underneath the chin scales

The Vietnam piece is based on a real Helicopter pilot named Larry Brown , going on to be a Lt Col ...more on him and this when I get it on the bench ....I have had the honour to actually talk to the man who confirmed much

On the bust I detailed the hat badges and the cords , adding a name tag above his right pocket , on scarf added a nurses emblem ( his wife was one )

On right pocket added another patch outline , the scarf was built up slightly at the back and added a more defined hat strap at the back of head





Stay tuned and lookout for Larry WIP

Happy benchtime

The donkey walloper looks like a great piece, love this period so very flamboyant. Nice work on the pilot, that's a great 'tash.

The photo of Larry, he looks so young, possibly grew a 'tache to looks a bit older. I'm sure you will do this justice as I think the box art isn't great.

That will teach you not to put your big feet on the bench whilst on a tea break.

Wow Kev that's clumsiness approaching my level, great shame I was looking forward to seeing that one in particular.

I was overcome by my good looks .....a great shame and I’m suitably miffed .....perhaps one will turn up .....somewhere

Might have mentioned this one before but look for 'Steel Panther' on you tube 'The burden of being wonderful', could be your theme tune
