Jacek, Nice bust. The neck looks a bit long, but then again it might be the pictures. There's something wrong with the right hand gripping the thompson. Should'nt the hand/fingers be wrapped aound the grip more? IMHO the hand looks odd the way it's positioned.~Gary

Thank you Gary!

You have right , head and tommygun are not fixed at this moment ,but right ,neck looks to long And his nose need a little correction.
Thank you again !

All the best

Jacek,
In the movie "Kelly's Heroes," Clint Eastwood played "Private Kelly" - he wasn't a Sargeant.

Really nice, Jacek. Wonderful sculpting. I thought this was going to be a bust? Is it a figure instead?

The Thompson - Maybe it's the photos and maybe it's the lighting but something just doesn't quite look right. It could be that it wasn't fitted into the hand, or that could be part of it. Is it long enough [in the scale]? The actual length was/is 85.6 cm or 33.7 inches according to -

On the other hand - maybe it's just my old eyes! :lol:

All the best,

Thank you very much my friend for your opinions .

Janne >His collar is part of my old T shirt .

Anders > Helmet netting i made with mosquito nett glued onto helmet.

Dan> Yes this is bust only,not full figure .
And you have sniper eye ! My Thompson is 1,4 mm to short in scale.
For comparison two pics with a tommy held by my friend who is 175 cm tall, not as tall as MR. Eastwood,Pics made in my workshop, the gun is authentic, but rendered unuseable (Poland has very strict laws on guns)

Thanks again and best regards

Jacek
