Air Power, and the history of the Royal Air Force, is a personal interest of mine. As such I tend to be drawn to figures and busts of pilots, though usually they are portraits of aces.
This is the Latorre Models kit of a Royal Flying Corps pilot. Sculpted by Latorre this figures is a lovely portrait of an airman during the First World War. The figure was painted in oils as I find these the best material to reproduce natural materials. It was quite a challenge to paint that much leather but in the end I am quite pleased with the result.
