Hello Folks
I've had a number of requests to re release this 1/9th scale V bust sculpted for me by Pavol Ovecka some time ago. I have now cast a few and if anyone is interested then please email me on gordonmi@hotmail.com and I will send an invoice.
I've seen a number of these busts very well painted at shows recently. Although it's badged as a Para it could be converted to represent other units.
Thanks to Peedee for the boxart
Price is £25.00 + £4.50 shipping to UK.
Cheers
Gordon

Great job by PeeDee on this cracking bust Gordon

Offo can certainly put some character into a face, can't he? That's very nice Gordon.

Phil

He can indeed. It is a very fresh take on WW2 subjects which have been pretty much exhausted.

Absolutely superb. It is 'eyes left' as they pass the Cenotaph though...........

Mike

It's going to be part of a larger boxed scene as revisiting Oostebeek Mike.


Thanks for your comment Helm.

This is an amazing piece to paint.

Great work ! The sculpt is just perfect and the paint is fantastic !!!! Thank Grod

One of my patients always used to lead off the Paras at the Cenotaph. He had dropped into Sicily and Normandy, been a reserve for Arnhem and then dropped over the Rhine. After a couple of years in civvie street he rejoined the sand coloured beret mob ("it's a flaming sword, not a winged dagger") and then did several canopy drops, i.e. into the forest canopy, in the Far East. He then wondered why he had worn out his hips and suffered from back ache!

Mine's on the way, but might change the regiment. Watch this space.... U.S. Vet - good call too Nap

Phil

Vet arrived today Gordon - absolutely spot on mate. I look forward to getting to grips with him

Phil

What regiment are you doing Phil?

Arrived today Gordon, cheers mate Nice little cast, hadn't realised it was a one piece job, do you have a link to the original post as I think it had some details on the chap himself? Never mind found it https://www.planetfigure.com/thread...te-regiment-pavol-ovecka.196978/#post-1025501

I would have done my dad, but he was in 2Bn Glasgow Highlanders, so it would need some heavy conversion to add a Glengarry, so I decided I'll do a RTC vet in memory of my grand-dad, who was a WW1 tanker. New Year project, which I'll do an SBS on.

Phil

Mine arrived today thanks Gordon. What a wonderful casting.
