Chosin Few WIP

[BigDuke]

Working on my very first bust! I chose the Chosin Few from Young Miniatures because my Grandfather was a Marine in Korea. I was hoping to get some feedback from those with more experience. So far I am pretty happy with it, but lots of work to go.

A great start. Painted, sprayed, acrylics or oils.

From what I can see, its a very good paint job and a nice bust to boot, nice work. (although this is not my period by about150 years)

Base coats have been airbrushed using acrylics. Will continue using acrylics for the details.

So I am planning on adding some snow and ice effects. I normally work in 28mm and was curious what everyone uses for snow at around 1/10 scale.

Wow Big,
28 mm to 200 mm in one fell swoop, good on you.
My move from small to large took much longer in line with my failing eyesight.
Really like your work and will keep an eye on the dio'.
Good luck

Looks really good so far.You are a versatile modeller if you can "jump" from 28mm to 200mm and still get such good results.Very good indeed.

My first attempt at eyes. Had to play with it a bit but finally got it to look about right.

Also got a first base coat of flesh down.
