Roy Hunt Miniatures
114th Pennsylvania (Collis') Zouave
1/8th scale resin / metal
Painting guide & Instructions
Sculpted by Roy Hunt
Painted by Dave Maddox
6 parts
I received in the mail today 2 of Roy Hunt’s newest releases. The first review will be on the 114th Pennsylvania ( Collis’ ) Zouave.
The bust is comprised of 6 parts including the wire to make the 2 cords of the tassle. A simple twisting together of the 2 wires makes the tassel.
The chest is beautifully detailed with actual texture sculpted into the jacket as well as the immense detail Roy has given the piping (braid) of the jacket. The strap has also been given texture which makes the end result after painting jump out with detail.
The only seam line I found on any part was underneath the chest piece which can be quickly be removed with a hobby knife. I found no visible seam / casting lines anywhere else on the parts.
The bust pillar is a separate part and can be pegged to the bottom of the chest leaving the option of a brass rod that could also be used (not included).
Below we see the separate casted tassel and the 2 wires that easily twist into the cord and attached to the back of the fez and to the top of the tassel.
Now to the beauty of this kit. It comes with 2 optional heads. 1 with facial hair and sideburns and the other clean shaven……..awesome.
