US Marine bust, c. 1944

[Canoehead]

Hi all - my latest project just finished; a WW2 US Marine in 1/10 scale from Young Miniatures in oils and acrylics. I scratchbuilt the Tommy gun and its strap; otherwise, he's stock.

Great looking bust. I really admire the level of detail you put in this bust. Your style is very graphic and extremely effective to catch the viewers eye and hold it.
