Every range needs a ww2 German, they are popular after all. I decided to join in and sculpt a bust, but wanted something a little different so I have opted for an SS officer in formal evening dress.
Here is an early photo, very much wip but it gives you the idea
Steve - glad you like it. no, it is not based on a particular officer. I still find getting a likeness is hard work, for a figures of a VC winner the likeness cannot be avoided but for a bust like this I am taking the easier way out.
Many years ago MilMod had a series about SS uniforms and one issue featured mess dress, since then I have had the idea of a little vignette of three officers in formal dress. Probably 30 years ago and I have never got around to it, so the bust will have to do!
Here is a photo of the sculpted bust.
A little issue with one of the lapels which was sorted wiht Green Stuff.
