Naked Army Busts - US Navy Pilot Pacific 1943

[Jimmy S]

Just to show that it is not all Australian subjects, this bust could be converted into a USMC pilot or similar. Once again painted by Alan Mackie in oils.

Actually, no "conversion" necessary since without any visible insignia, there was no difference between Navy and Marine pilots of this era in the khaki drill uniform.

Beautiful sculpt!
