Mountain Man 1856 - Heroic Miniature Review

[Guy]

Heroic Miniatures
"Mountain Man - 1856"
1/10th scale resin
1 part resin + Base
Limited Edition

Back during WE 2008 I ordered the above Mountain Man from Heroic Miniatures and promised to do a kit review when he up-dated his web-site and had added the bust to the site so it can be ordered. Heroic has an all new web-site now and this beautiful bust can be seen there too.

Arriving in a light weight cardboard box with the bust and the base wrapped securely the bust is one part resin.

Above you see several sides of the Mountain Man showing the detail typical of a Mountain man of this era. Very little clean-up was needed prior to priming for painting.

The above photographs show the attention to detail Heroic has sculpted into the bust and character of the American Mountain Man.

Above is the quality base that is also supplied with the bust.

Above is the bust and base together ready for painting.

Additional Box Art Photographs

Conclusion:
An excellent bust depicting the American Mountain of 1856. Great detail with minimal clean-up needed. Highly recommended. Limited Edition so they will not last long.

Guy,
How much is the weight of the bust with package etc.
€ 28,- is not much. But i wanted to know the P&P cost's for the figure to Europe.
