Completed Chopper Crew 9 Sqn RAAF Vietnam, 1/6th scale bust Naked Army

[tonydawe]

Hi guys,

Here are the final pics of Naked Army's 1/6th scale bust of an Royal Australian Air Force helicopter crew from 9 Squadron in South Vietnam.

This has been a great bust to paint and I highly recommend it.

The bust will soon be available for sale on the Naked Army website www.na-int.com

As tomorrow is ANZAC Day, this bust is my tribute to the men and women of the Australian and New Zealand Defence Forces.

It looks to be a great sculpt as usual from Naked Army, and your box art painting has done it proud, well done mate.

Superb painting Mate.
This is a really well detailed sculpt and you have really done it justice. Some very fine brush strokes on this beauty.
I saw a figure of the moon landing a while back painted by Mr J Cabos where he painted a lunar landscape on the visor.
Just a thought Tony.
Great work Mate very well done.
All the best,
Keith

Nice work, Tony. A great bust and superb paint job.
I love all the small, fine details, like the mesh vest, zips etc.
Have a great ANZAC long weekend, mate.
