A resin portrait bust in 1:10 scale from Young Miniatures. The subject is a German infantryman on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. What follows describes the sculpting and the painting task, that is, the cut of the uniform, the surfaces and the color scheme. The bust is supplied unassembled and unpainted.
The subject rests on heavy woolen cloth and on a face exposed to the weather. The deep folds of the outer garment, the collar, the webbing and the headgear are all modeled. In 1:10 scale even the fabric itself is visible, so it pays to suggest the texture of the wool with a dry brush and not to rely on a flat shade alone.
Wash the casting free of mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off with a saw and fill and sand the seams once the parts are aligned. Then apply a thin primer, preferably in two or three light coats.
Painting: start with the eyes and the skin. On a subject from a cold environment a cool base for the skin with warm accents on the nose, the ears, the cheeks and the knuckles is effective, but add them sparingly, or the result will look scalded. Paint the wool of the uniform strictly matte, make the transitions with glazes and lighten the edges of the folds only slightly. Set the leather webbing and the buckles apart with a higher sheen and a dark base under the metallic paint. Pick the beard and the hair out with a thin brush and a dry brush. The weathering should be discreet: dust, frost or mud only in the folds and on the shoulders. Finally pin the bust to a base.
The bust is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Paints, glue, brushes and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
