    A few "bits & pieces" added on to this very popular 1/6 bust from Stormtroopers.....

    all added parts are sculpted by myself with milliput, apart from the 1/6 hands and colt revolver that were purchased from the internet, just to save me a bit of time & effort

    I've tried to make him as ragged as possible, the right hand is wounded with a bandage around part wrist & hand which in effect hides the joint.

    The flag will be painted up as the "Lone Star" Texas Infantry and as per the attached picture.

    The photos are only quickly taken so apologies for any poor quality.

    Cheers

    Thanks Warren, there's a lot to paint on him, I can go to town on the weathering as I want to be as worn and ragged as possible(y)

    Jim,
    just been looking at the original bust in the other two threads... Now I have more of an understanding of how much work you have put into your bust..and I must say have vastly improved what is already an excellent " V " bust...
    Very well done..

    Glad you like him...Yep it was a bit of madness on my part but once I started I had to see it through, just felt like I wanted to do something else with it but as you said it's a superb bust on it's own, (y)

    Malc .......LOL ...it's that vest it overpowers him ......

    Turned pics for you Jimbo


    Very clever piece of work using a already very well sculpted bust , your additions compliments Carl's work well

    I think you should add a bit of rank ....Cpls cheverons would be easy enough .....and only one set to do

    Now is the time to get painting on this piece ....swirl those brushes

    Happy benchtime
