This is my 5th review of PiliPili's Special Series 1/9th scale busts. This is a 4 part resin bust cast in a very light gray resin.

Packaged in a small sturdy cardboard box with all parts sealed in a zip-lock bag the bust needs very little clean-up for the painter to start right out with it.

Above are four views of the head showing the attention to detail Le-Van Quang has sculpted into this bust.

Above are close-ups of the bust showing the detail of the hat and beard as well as the chest.

Conclusion:
Another well sculpted bust by Le-Van Quang of PiliPili Miniatures. All dry-fitting was excellent with minimal clean-up needed. Highly recommended.
