thank you John. it sure was stressful to paint but it was also very fun.we modelers are a funny bunch.I hear it all the time .they say it would drive them crazy, but it calms me down. found out today there is a model contest march 30 about 1hr away from me.going to see how he fairs. will let you all know. hopes not up but we will see.

I was looking over this bust and seen I did not use the smoke grenades.so back to work.finished them and added tape around them to give them more of a bunched up look. its done [ATTACH]333358[/ATTACH][ATTACH]333359[/ATTACH]for good this time.

the last thing I have done was made the base with spackled paint .I then made some jungle foliage and placed it on the base..the final thing I did was place the Vietnam campaign ribbon on it.I think that ribbon really set it off. great color contrast. I'm signing it and on the shelf it goes. thanks for everyone's very kind words

thank you ALL so much for the flattering comments. it took 13 days from start to finish and I learned some new ways to paint.
