USMC - Fallugah, Irag - Regimental S4 Bust Review

[Guy]

RS4-028
USMC - Fallugah, Irag
1/9th scale - 200mm
Sculpted & Painted by Nick Majerus
9 resin parts & color guide

Nick Majerus, owner of Regimental S4 Miniatures has brought us a modern day USMC soldier in Fallugah, Iraq. This resin bust kit comes in 9 resin parts plus a photograph of the soldier that inspired Nick to sculpt the bust as a color guide.

Above you see the bust kit out of the box and displayed for the review. The parts come in two separate sealed baggies to insure against loss during shipping. The bust is comprised of 9 resin parts.

Above is the separate cast head with the helmet cast separately for ease of painting the face and head.

Above you see the separate casted helmet with the goggles partially showing on top. The straps are cast separately ( see below) for greater detail in the final presentation.

Above is the chest portion of the bust in which the head dry-fits snuggly down into the cavity of the neck.

Conclusion:

An excellent kit with only minor clean-up of mold flashing around the bottom of the chest and the mold plug on top of the head. I am glad to see a new bust of the modern USMC Soldier now available. Highly recommended.

I picked this one up in Chicago and it is a nice piece of work. Quality of casting is excellent,lot of character and a good representation of the "Face of Fallujah".....shows the fatigue and stress that characterizes the Corps during the battle for this city.
