I remember this thread, a wonderfull work and a splendid doc, all needed for KUK moutain troops !

Splendid doc thanks to Martin and few other guys
Unfortunately my bad eyes prevent me in doing a good work on that bust - so I decided to do it digital ( I can ZOOM small details and overcome my eye boundaries).
But there are a few problems also: the rope and "Schuetzenschnur" will be much harder to do digitally than by hand
Hope I will found a good printer and print it one day...

Sureyou will thind it, just ask pn PF, there's some printers id my memory is good!

Yes, I saw a few great prints here, but first to finish it and see if it is worth printing

Some work on uniform and cap:

Any plans to have the finished product available to the public? I've seen enough to be seriously interested in one.

Sure, if decent print come out of this
I'll let You know, and will post here all the steps - from the modeling to printing and casting...

Tweaks on cap and uniform, number "4" on the right shoulder...

Looking very good. What year is the bust meant to represent?

The number '4' looks huge, but I'm sure you have done more research than I have. Maybe this photo is of some help for the size:

No, You are right, it was late and I miscalculated the size, I do not have dimensions, but according to some pics, it should be much smaller.

The correct title of the bust should read:
"Korporal, KK. Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 4, Klagenfurt, Spring 1915"

That's right, Darko!

Cheers

If you do make copies I would definitely be interested!
