Hello MSCers,
I have created this thread to give a spot to ask any questions you may have as well as sharing your progress and finished busts for the MSC Busty Art Group Build.
Feel free to start your own threads if you like. Whether you have a separate thread created or not, you are welcome to share your work within the thread.
Have FUN!!

Todd, Andy, Terry, great news, guys! This will be definitely something that'll love to see. Just not to know if I can jump with my 50% already made Roman Legionary or, more elegant, starting a new project (and this will be a surprize!). Warm regards! Nicolae

That is a great figure Terry! I think this is the one Andy wanted to do first actually!!
I probably should have added "any un-started kit" in the details section as a Group Build is typically comprised starting with an un-started kit. If you or anyone else is interested in joining in on the build, let one of us know and we will get your name added to the list!!

Ok, Todd, thanks for the news! In this case, here I am: "To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,"

Well, Todd, of course is Shakespeare because I want to present you... Hamlet, prince of Denmark www.heroesvillainsminiatures.com/product/hamlet-prince-denmarkk/in a wonderfull project made by Heroes & Villains. Unfortunatelly, Fernando Ruiz (who made an excellent artbox) and Juan Diaz (who deserve all the praises for an excellent cast) break up and took different paths. Fernando launched at the end of 2104 his new line FeR Miniatures with great releases (http://ferminiatures.com/?p=480). Juan Diaz keep it on with Heroes & Villains and kept the historical series of busts with this splendid Hamlet too (http://www.heroesvillainsminiatures.com/category-product/historic/). I'll warmly recommend their busts, excellent casting and lovelly subjects. And some pics! Cheers, Nicolae

In fact the piece is a great form of inspiration! You are doing a fine job!! Not a deadline to get entered in the Group Build, only on the end date. So, don't feel pressured in any way to find something before the 14th. Great entry Nic!! Love it!! I have been tempted to mock mine up as well, but figured it was best it stayed in the box while I finish up some other things...LOL!! I did take a kit shots or two...for fun!! Few more days and we can let the resin fly!!

I was torn between few busts including one that you painted but I opted for US GI because it is overdue for me to do an American. I like to balance my work between American and German... know what I mean? I'd love to see you sign up here if you want to do another bust!

Heck, another MUST DO, when will it stop!!?? OK, as you know me, you know I won´t do a kit, I will sculpt something. There are two ideas around: THE THING in a Frank-Version or a concept Predalien Bust from the design tables. I think I vote for my Thing thing because I worked on it some time before. OK, Todd, so I am in!
