U-boat Skipper, c. 1942

[Canoehead]

Hi all - just finished this one; YOUNG miniatures 1/10 bust of a U-boat Commander c. 1942. I opted to go with the grey leather coat instead of the box art’s black and added the scratch built pipe after seeing another version of this bust (couldn’t determine the modeler’s name, however). Paint is the usual oils and acrylics:

Terrific paint splashing Brian

Great work, of course I'm immediately reminded of Jürgen Prochnow in "Das Boot"!
