The new November-bust by "Young"...:

Title: US 101st Airborne - Siege of Bastogne
Scale: 1:10
Resin
Sculptor and Boxart: Young B Song
Number: YM1883



No question! This is Damian Lewis as "Major Dick Winters" during the Bastogne-episode of the series "Band of Brothers"...:

The sculptor has done an excellent job capturing the facial likeness and the equipment etc look great as well but I just think that shoulders and upper arms would have made this more appealing, I personally don't like V busts and this one is almost there.

As an exercise in sculpting someone's likeness it's superb, and the box art painting is terrific. But I don't understand why some sculptors apparently feel the need to "Hollywoodize" everything they do and not create something a bit more original (and "Damian Winters" has been done before).

It's nice for what it is, but I'm not feeling an irresistible urge to chuck the best part if 50 Sovs at it.

Sorry but Nuts Planet made the definitive Damien Lewis/ Dick Winters bust several years ago. This is definitely a good likeness but I’m not buying it. It doesn’t work for me
