I Purchased this "kit" in August 2002 and it has been lying around in it's plain cardboard box since.  It cost $10 in the sale bin of the Orlando Sci-Fi shop, Florida.  Bargain.

I had never tried a serous attempt at painting figures, but with the help and some useful advice from some of the regular figure modellers here I thought I'd give it a bash.  The model itself is a one piece resin cast with fantastic surface detail.  The creator Mike Cusanelli has a series of these busts and other full figure kits, pardon the pun.  I suggest giving these kits a go especially when your other builds get a bit too much.
