NCO Ardennes 1944











Here are a few pics of the finished bust. It was a fun project and one I certainly had alot of interest in doing. I'll have this piece in my Gettysburg display August 7-9. Thanks!

Hi Matt,

great work! I really love what you have redone with the original kit. It looks every bit like a "dogface" now!

Thanks, Calvin! Very nice of you to say. I studied your version before painting mine. I'm experimenting lately with complimentary glazes. You may be able to see the violet tones in the shadows of the coat. I think this gives some added life and dimension to things. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration.
