Hi All
This mini figure / bust was a gift included in a purchase from Historex Agents. It is a white metal figure / bust from Euro Millitaire I believe. It was a really fun build and is planted on a brass rod fixed to a resin display plinth.
The paints used were the AK WW1 British uniform set (3 colours). It was also the first time I'd used a wet palette for acrylic paints and I was impressed with the length of time it kept them workable. I also used some acrylic retarder to extend the paint on the model to allow more time for wet blending.
The biggest mistake I made, which i really should rectify is the gun sling, which miraculously hovers in mid-air above the shoulder...oops.
Here's the pics, enjoy..
Cheers
