Gentlemen, i submit to you this young miniature bust i have converted. I am not a sculptor or that good of a painter. I have wanted to have a bust of a flamethrower Marine so i just went for it. I CUT OFF ALL the details off the front and back. then went to work with the putty. the pack for the flamethrower was made with a paperclip and more putty. the canisters are cut down C02 tubes here are the photos i have of this project.

I wanted to try to place the Marine emblem into the base making it look like rock and part of the base. so the island and the Marines are one in the same. thats what i was trying to do. the base will have several features from severl islands the Marines landed on. like the seawall at Tarawa ,volcanic sand from IWO JIMA,and other features so thbase is not done yet. here are the final photos.

I am seeing some very good work here .......... Well ABOVE average as I am sure most will agree.

very nice indeed - cheers. Dan

Great conversion. Very inspiring.
