Here is my box art painting of this wonderful 1/10 bust, masterfully sculpted by Nino Lorenzoni for Dog Tag models. Available from Dog Tag models facebook page.

Hope you like it,

Hi,
Nice painting overall but color gradients lack continuity. This is the most difficult to do with acrylic paint.
Very nice bust.

Great work, superb skin tones and treatment of different materials, as well as the different light effects.

Love the pack of Lucky Strikes. A nice touch of added realism that helps to bring him to life. Beautifully done.

Great looking paint job! Not sure what they have sculpted in the inside of the M60.

Think you mean the thing between the M60 and the head?...
In real it was an empty can of beans, which happen to fit exactly the ammo belt feeding side of the M60 to prevent it from jamming. (More common seen on board Hueys, AFV etc)

Erik,

Thanks. I had never seen a photo with a bean can there. Having used the M60 for many years, we hug the ammo bags on the feed trays.

No problem, here are a few pic. As said, mostly used on Hueys and AFVs (For info only...)
