SK Miniatures 1/9 US Vietnam Marine Bust

Peter, you've got his skin tone perfectly. Another clean and fast finish that always amazes me. The detail and features on the bust must have been great to work with.

Cheers,
Richard

Steve, you know how it is - 'So many kits, so little time!' Many thanks.

Thanks Richard. Yes, the detail, particularly the creases and wrinkles on the clothing, made this one a lot of fun.

As expected Peter another outstanding piece of work, in my humble opinion one of the best faces you've done, a real lifelike quality.

Hi Peter, an awesome finish mate. I'm particularly drawn towards the camouflage on the helmet for some reason. Well done!

Cheers

Rick - Woah, steady on! Too much praise. I did enjoy this one as it was a great sculpt, and it set up quite a few challenges - having to build most of it beforehand in particular was a new on one me. I still nedd to find a way of refining my finish though - hopefully that will come with time.

Wouter - Many thanks. I did really enjoy doing the helmet. It was challenging, but there was loads of detail to play with.
