"The Wingco", RCAF Pilot, 1944

    My latest just completed - a bust of an RCAF Spitfire pilot in 1/10 scale from Mitches Military Models, painted up in my usual oils and acrylics. Sculptor Pavol Ovecka based his piece on photos of Wing Commander "Johnnie" Johnson (RAF) when he commanded No. 127 Wing (RCAF) in Normandy in the summer of 1944. Popular with the Canadians he led, they presented Johnson with honorary "CANADA" shoulder flashes which I added with Apoxie Sculpt, along with an ascot.
