USMC SSgt wwII - Warriors bust conversion

[Martin]

Hi again,
Loog time ago I get from my friend Warriors bust - 101st Airborne Div. in Class A uniform. First I was ready to do as it was. I did bit upgrade ( pathfinder patch, sergant stripes, more insignia etc.). I never paint it at all. Like month ago I decide to finish this one but in bit different way. I´m collecting USMC wwII militaria and I never could find nice USMC bust. So I decided to convert Warriors bust. I used plastic sheets and miliput.
Whole bust is painted by Vallejo. Part of my collection was useful to do that conversion. Also I used book to reproduce exact medal bars. I hope you will like it. Any comments welcome.
