WIP Critique RAAF 9Sqn. Vietnam, Naked Army 1/6th scale bust

[tonydawe]

Hi Moz, thanks for your comments mate. The time on his watch is accurate to the reference photo I was sent by the sculptor.

Cheers Chris, the flight vest is a work of art in itself. How all those thousands of tiny squares were sculpted and cast so cleanly has me buggered. Glad you like it mate. I suggest you buy one and give it a try for yourself.

G'day Bro, thanks for your comments. Sorry I couldn't make it to Ben's yesterday. I was looking forward to seeing your sniper bust and the Frenchy.

Kia Ora Mike, thanks for noticing the lettering on the vest. A steady hand and some patience was all I needed. I agree about the visor up comment too.

Hi Jamie, thanks for noticing all the little details mate. The lovely thing about these Naked Army figures is that every little bit of detail is visible with the naked eye, so there's no room for "fudging". Even the weave of the fabric in the Nomex gloves is visible

Thanks Alan, glad you like him mate. Not far to go now and this one will be done.

Sorry about the horizontal pics Brian. It only seems to happen when I use my IPhone to take the pics.

I'll take some better pics in a few days with my new camera which will hopefully by the right way up.
