As this bust is portrayed as a senior figure, why not the commander of the group ?
Commander Air Group is a Naval Term for the Officer who is in Command of the whole Air Wing, Most of the time his number is "OO" or "Double Nuts.
Head painted with Vallejo. The body armour painted with Tamiya matt white, followed by Gloss White after some pre shading work, all applied by airbrush. Decals set using Microsol, which works perfect for curves and getting the decals to nestle into crooks and crannies. Brown wash with Liquitex Raw umber, and exhaust vents dirtied with Vallejo Pigments;

Nice job Steve. The flesh tone is that of a grizzled veteran and that is reinforced with the chips and dings on the armour. Might be the photo angle but he looks a little “laid back” in posture.

I think you are on to something there Neil, that bust does remind one of the illustrious Mr. Race. ;) Top work there Steve, that armour does look well lived in. Rick H.
