Seil Miniatures brings us another WWII subject bust. A German Officer in 200mm white metal with 10 white metal parts and an etched engraved plaque. The figure is again packages in Seil's trademark "Black Box" with all parts sandwiched between layers of foam for protection.

The box art is used as the color guide as seen above and additional photos are available on Seil's website.

The above photos show the fine detail sculpted into the head, which is cast separtly.

The hat is also a separte cast part and dry-fitts exactly onto the head.

Above you see the 4 seperate parts to make up the bust. Front, back and 2 side shoulders which attach to the pedestal.

Hello Marc,

Yes, this is my 1st review using the new Digital Light box I purchased. I still have to play with the angle of the lights that came with the Light box.
