Hope you like him, I had fun painting this bust!

Great piece of work
He looks very good allthough my favorite part is the M1
That really looks great and it actually was the first thing i noticed

Outstanding piece. I enjoyed following your build also

Truly an outstanding piece of work, inspiring doesn't cover it but will have to do to save space.

Thanks for posting this and the build thread. Really enjoyed the learning experience.

Awesome work and truly wonderful tribute to John Basilone!!

Superb work, you have mastered the black art of figure painting.

Thank you for all nice words guys, really appreciate it

I'm lost for words! Stunning! Amazing! Impressive! Incredible!

The m1 looks outstanding and the rest aswell. Art

Fantastic accurate detail of the M-1 rifle and related cartridge belt. I carried an M-1 on and off for almost 3 years, and your model looks like the real thing. The water cooled 30 caliber machine gun was before my time, so I cannot comment. We used an air cooled 30 cal machine gun.

Great work!

Thanks guys, glad you like it so much!

This is pretty incredible. The use of tones and highlights is inspiring. Just, wow, well done, sir.

Excellent work, looks outstanding.

Fantastic buildthread and an amazing result

Impressive painting and toning. Great job !

Thanks guys, appreciate it

Awesome work Frans! I thought I'd already commented on this, must've been on Facebook, lol!

It's great to see your skills improving with all theses figures, I think this and the navy diver are my favourites so far.

But I am looking forward to your return to some armour soon, lol!

Thanks Rich, and yes you did comment on FB
The navy diver is one of my favs too!
Love painting figures, especially fantasy.
But no worries, I'm still a styreen armour fan!
