AC Models US Marine in Afghanistan

    I painted this bust from AC Models of a Marine in Afghanistan as a going away present for my friend who had been the Director of the Air Defense Artillery Museum at Fort Sill, Oklahoma when he left to go to work at the National Museum of the Marine Corps. I painted the bust with acrylics. The Marine is wearing the plain tan Nomex uniform used for mounted operations, Coyote Brown equipment, and Desert MARPAT helmet cover. He is armed with a M4 sporting an ACOG sighted with the fiber optic portion partially taped over with 100 MPH tape.

    Thanks, Guys.

    It is one of the few pieces I have done that covers the time period of my service.

    Jon has this piece displayed in his office.
