    Hi Guys

    Kevin Dunne asked me to post these pictures of a bust he recently finished for the exhibition ....

    sculpted by Carl Reid and released a while back by HQ Modek Kits and .......

    based on the picture ( this has been colourised )

    WW1 German Home Guard in winter clothing

    Nice work on the Bavarian collar markings which are hand painted as collar has nothing sculpted on it

    Enjoy

    Greetings All,
    Just to let everyone know that the opening of the Project has been moved to 11/16/2018.
    While I wanted it to be on 11/11...my son decided to get married on 11/10....525 miles from where the opening was to be.
    The Gallery Curator did not want to have the opening without me there so...
    We have 20 busts completed so far out of the goal of 40...Kevin Peart has 3 ready also and I plan on getting 6-8 more done.
    Still have unpainted busts on handd if anyone is interested.
    For my American friends, I will be at MFCA with the unpainted busts.
    Thanks again, everyone...

    Howdy everyone!

    Kevin sent me a British Trench Raider bust to paint up. Its a Model Cellar offering and it looks like one of them Carl Reid sculpts. This dude has loads of character! Here is a little update.

    Hi Joe,

    Great start on our British Trench Raider. I really like the subtle skin tones you have achieved. Can't wait to see more.
