    This will be a fun one to paint, what with all the details and varying textures. I can't speak for the accuracy of the equipment/gear, I'll let the experts chime in on that, but this to me looks great (y)!

    What's with all the movie star faces......personally....I find it detracts from the piece....becomes a caricature.....shame....otherwise it's a great sculpt/subject.

    Beautiful sculpt, but getting tired of WW2 subject matter.

    Love this! Despite the "movie star" face, it manages to avoid all the pitfalls inherent in yesterday's attempt....... (y)

    Very nice sculpt I can take or leave the Brad Pitt face, but it's a stunning bit of work. Like wise I can't rivet count the equipment but it looks fine to me (y)

    I like it!

    And finally a fitting tribute to the "Forgotten Men" of Bomber Command.

    Expect to do a commission on this guy one day.

    Speaking of which this is Young's 50th bust, as the original South Korean sculptor to inspire us & his countryman he continues to raise his standard. Despite may I say criticism on his faces, the essence of a bust, which all have their own personality IMHO
    This one is no exception, even utilising the craftsmanship of Kirill we see a freshness to each piece as well.

    With this one a bare head as well it's easy to swap out or reduce the neck size should you want.

    I reckon we should be raising our hands & doing a "high 5" to acknowledge Young's portfolio of work, our hobby would be poorer without.

    Thanks Young for this creation.
    CONGRATULATIONS!!! on achieving this milestone with your business .

    Stay safe
    Mike
