FRANK,

WOW !! Great Customer Service from Young Miniatures ! Very Cool !! I'm lookin' forward to seein' this Bust come to life !!

I'm sorry to hear about Your Dad !! My Condolences Ma' Brotha' !!
 
I want to dedicate this to my father who introduced me to military modelling long time ago and passed away last week.

Here's to you, Dad.



Frank, I'm sorry I overlooked this yesterday. What's more I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad last March. You and your family have my deepest sympathy. Catching up on this thread now.
 
Fellow modellers,

I have some great news. Yesterday I've send an e-mail to Young Miniatures about the cap and this is their reply:
Dear Mr. Frank

Hello.
I'm Min J Kim in Young miniatures.
Your e-mail astonished us.
Because we never remove death's head in kit and pictures.
But if you bought it in German shop, I can guess something.
Sometimes, our German dealers had problem with their customhouse about SS figures because of political reason.
I guess, they had to remove death's head for import.
Ok, we will send new cap for you.
Please let me know your address.
I will wait your kind answer.

Warm regards

Min

Hi all,

The postman always rings twice and delivers :

Yeah that's right. In reply to my e-mail the kind Mr Min J. Kim of YOUNG MINIATURES send me this bust. :eek:hmy:

And what was in the box besides the bust?

Korea-Servic0002.JPG


A replacement cap for my 'SS Panzer Officer Normandy 1944'. :) :woohoo:

Is this service or what ? This was much more than I was hoping for, considering Young Miniatures wasn't to blame for the

missing death's head at all !!!

Hurrah for YOUNG MINIATURES !!!! (y) (y) (y) (y) (y) (y)

With Ceasar on the shelf, I finallt found the time to start the painting of the bust.

Nothing spectacular, just wanted to share with you the work in progress.

Back in Black

Primed in Vallejo black primer.

Golden Brown

Taking the edges of the black by giving it a misting with a mix of the colors shown.

Orange is the Way the Summer Glows

Mixing up oranges shown to get a little highlight on the face only.

Lucky Number's One

Brush painting of the face with a Number 1 brush. No detailing yet just trying to get the basic features right, still a lot of work

to do !
