SS Panzer Officer Normandy 1944

SS Panzer Officer, Normandy 1944
Kit Number YM1805
1/10th scale resin
11 parts
Photo etching
Name plate & color guide

​

I received Youngs latest bust in the mail today and eagerly opened it to see his latest creation. Once again firmly packed in a sturdy black box withal parts sandwiched between thick foam.

The kit consists of 11 parts with a guide for the brass photo etched parts as well as a complete color guide. The head is cast seperetly from the chest and the hat is separate from the head. A small mold flash is on each part which can be easily removed. The photos show the mold flash can be seen in the following photos throughout the review.

The photo etched parts come in a separate bag taped to the directions and placement guide for the photo etched parts.

A complete color guide also comes with the kit.

The head comes as a separate part and I have it mounted for photographing on a brass rod in a pin vise.

The head fits down snuggly into the neck / shoulders part with no sanding / filing needed.
