I got the idea from watching the films, cross of iron and Stalingrad. The busts are a verlinden/ young and life busts that I put together with parts from the spares box. I used one of the spare heads that came with one of the busts, the bust rear left with great coat is out the box, the rest were put together as different as the parts available would allow. The base was made up with blocks of wood filled out the polystyrene, lots of different coloured pigments and crusted silicon and pva glue.
Cheers for the kind comments and interest, thanks Tommi.
Glad you both liked it.

John
