    This is a 1/10 conversion that I just finished. I converted the body and head from another kit. The Stetson I made myself. All paints were acrylics.

    I read the book "Danger Close by Amber Smith. She was a Warrant Officer and flew a Kiowa Warrior helicopter in Iraq and Afghanistan. It inspired me to make a bust of a lady pilot.

    I will add it to my other "Women in Uniform" figures.

    I hope you like it.
