    bicycle tyre inner tube is perfect for the helmet band since Marines used truck tyre inner tubes for real

    Nice work! Little pointer, at the 9.50 mark, where you are applying the watered down PVA. Spray a light mist of alcohol right before the PVA and it will help the glue flow a lot better into all the nooks and crannies and help lock in your powders and sand etc. Also, add a drop of dish washing liquid into your glue mix to help break the water tension and improve the flow. That way you can avoid the clumping that occurs with the PVA sitting on top of your other materials.
    In saying that, your groundwork is fantastic! These little tips might make the next one easier. Love that pose you displayed him in too. Top shelf work!

      Hello, friend! Thank you for your support.👍
      During the Vietnam War, particularly between 1966 and 1970, many soldiers faced issues with their M16 rifles. They discovered that the rifles had manufacturing defects, and the only solution at the time was to conduct regular maintenance and cleaning of the rifles. As a result, soldiers utilized brushes, toothbrushes, and lubricating oils to keep the weapons clean.
      For this figure, I referenced photographs. If possible, please check it out at the end of the video.
      Take care!

      @@jean-jacqueslegall6860 Bonjour, mon ami! Comment ça va? J'espère que tout va bien de ton côté. Désolé pour le retard dans la réponse à votre message.
      Concernant la figurine 1/6 du Vietnam, je voudrais te la vendre pour 200 euros, mais je ne peux pas faire ça. J'ai passé de nombreuses heures à travailler sur ce projet. Je crois que j'ai passé plus de 120 heures, en travaillant seulement les week-ends. Les fabricants comme DID, bien qu'ils soient connus pour leur haute qualité et leurs détails, n'arrivent souvent pas à atteindre le niveau de personnalisation et d'attention individuelle qu'un projet artisanal comme celui-ci peut offrir. Ce type de dévouement et de compétence valorise vraiment la pièce. Je n'ai jamais mis cette figurine en vente, mais comme tu as montré de l'intérêt, je pense pouvoir me séparer de cette pièce unique pour 900 euros. Salutations du Japon!
