discussion FER 120mm 1st Minnesota, Lincoln’s Guard 1861 Bust

[Guest]

This was a fun little bust to paint. I really like the 120mm scale. FER do some really nice American Civil War busts, I will certainly be doing more of them. Flesh in oils Abteilung bought recently from Scale Model Shop, the rest in acrylic.

Thanks Tony. I have done a couple of the Napoleonic Airfix but I am afraid they are too small for me now. 120mm is as small as I can go.

Hi Graham
Very nicely done. Red is quite a challenging colour - getting the highlights right.
