Special Forces Vietnam

[Nick Majerus]

This is a bust I have been working on for some time. Have used several kit parts to create the bust. The M1A1 stock was to frajle in resin, so I used brass wire to replace it. This represents a 2nd LT of the 5th Special Group in Vietnam during the early years of the war. The name tapes and rank were cut pieces of paper. I used to use lead foil but paper does just as well. Everything is hand painted except the SF patch on left sleeve which was done on my printer on paper. Thanks for looking.

Thanks Steve and Nap! It was a love and hate project getting the arms, hands, and M1A1 to fit right.
