German Landsknecht - Model Cellar Review

[Guy]

MC19004
"German Landsknecht"
1/9th scale resin
3 resin parts
Sculpted by Joachim Lindman

This beautiful bust is now owned by Model Cellar Productions and is cast in resin. The kit consists of 3 resin parts cast in a yellow resin.

Arriving in Model Cellar's sturdy brown cardboard box the bust parts were wrapped in bubble wrap with styrofoam chips in the box as well to insure against any breakage during shipping.

Above you see several views of the main part, the bust. The resin casting process has brought out the detail and is an exceptional casting.

Above is the separate cast hat with minimal clean-up needed prior to painting.

I agree, it is a beautiful piece of sculpting. So much so, it would make a lovely, life sized bronze, and that is saying something.

A nice piece. Very realistic face. Great price too.

Wonderfully sculpted bust and one that could be painted in many colour combinations.Thanks for the review Guy.

Good sculpting, and the options for painting are broad.

I would grab two.

One to keep as a Landsknecht, the other for conversion

Cheers

There is something about the pose and the style of the bust that I find instantly appealing. The castings look top notch as well. Thanks Guy, great review.
