Meet my new project: Gefreiter Manfred Gerhard “Bunny” Wolfschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff Sr.
Sadly for Gefreiter Manfred Gerhard Wolfschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff Sr. a gefreiter is not an NCO and therefore he has no powers of authority in the Kaiser's army. He's simply a glorified private, much to his chagrin and that of his devoted son, Manfred Gerhard Wolfschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff Jr., nicknamed “Bootsie” to distinguish him from his father, the aforementioned Gefreiter Manfred Gerhard “Bunny” Wolfschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff Sr..
From Frank-Miniatures it is a 1:10 scale resin bust consisting of the bust, backpack, rifle, pipe, and pickelhaube spike (the pickel in pickelhaube) plus a
small strap, part of his backpack harness. The bust has lots of sharp detail and is cast well with only one small flow mark I've been able to discover. Parts are well designed to fit together easily. Hats off to Frank on a job well done.
I've discovered two color references for the bust, one in the traditional feldgrau uniform, the other a tan or light brown uniform color. I'll be using the feldgrau example as my reference.
