Young Miniatures 1/10 scale Lewis Gunner bust
« on: January 15, 2023, 01:20:58 AM »
Something I've been dabbling with over the last couple of years are 1/10 scale busts of WW1 subjects, and this is Young Miniatures Lewis Gunner painted in Vallejo Model Color acrylics.
Cheers,
Gary

Thanks Prze! I’ve been trying to “up my game” after reading Mike Butler’s new figure painting book.

All Vallejo! Wow. Very nice. The differences in materials and metals are excellent.

Superb work!  This belongs in the WWI figures section IMHO.

Well, it worked Gary. This is really exceptional. I've seen several of these busts in Mr. Black Publications and this one fits right in.

Great work!
