Been a long time since I posted anything so here we go. Young miniatures bust must be one of their early kits as it’s all metal. I have already assembled the front back and bottom of the bust using 2 part epoxy from Devcon and the shoulders with 5 minute epoxy, didn’t want to wait 12 hours for the cure time. A few pics so you get an idea of what it all looks like, it is ready to be primed so that is next. I hope to have an update in a few days. All comments welcome.

I had no idea Young Minis produced white metal busts! I think you are correct that this is an early example of their stuff. Looking forward to seeing your progress on this Robert.

Time for a small update, I masked off the major areas and used my airbrush to get some base coat color on, all colors are done with Vallejo acrylic’s. I am not to concerned about exact colors as all of this will be covered in oil paint. 2 pics all comments welcome.
