Saving Private Ryan... by Zuno... ^L^




Saving Private Ryan...
Capt. John H. Miller...
1/6th customized by Zuno...

Head Sculpt: Serang/Painted
Body: Soldier Story/Customized
Uniform: Soldier Story/Weathered
Helmet: DID/Customized
Glove: Soldier Story/Weathered
Thompson MG: DID/Weathered
Boots: Soldier Story/Weathered
Looses: Soldier Story/Weathered
Base: Self-Built

--------------------------------

Hi all,

I just finished "Capt. John H. Miller" from the movie "Saving Private Ryan".
The scene I made is just before he met Private Ryan in the grassy field.

I painted a Serang's Miller head sculpt. I think it is one of the most similar to him.
And I used Soldier Story's uniforms and looses but helmet and Thompson that were produced by DID for more accurate...

I press the tiny grasses one by one into the base. It was very fun experience...

Anyway, I hope you like my Miller.

Thanks,
Zuno... ^L^

Very cool piece! a few inaccuracies to the film, but it doesn't at all take away from the piece. I rather like the leather gloves actually

Re: Saving Private Ryan... by Zuno... ^L^

Any chance of a tutorial on the base?

What did you use for the weeds?


Awesome, by the way.

Re: Saving Private Ryan... by Zuno... ^L^

superb!!!!

one of the best Miller figs I've seen!

The helmet weathering is really nicely done!

You can't beat that Serang sculpt and you did a superb job painting it

The gloves look great but I'm thinking I don't remember Miller wearing gloves?

Cya,

You don't remember him wearing gloves in the movie for the simple fact that he didn't.

Oh man this is fantastic! Wonderfully weathered/painted and the pose is perfect for the environment.

Can I ask how did you make the tall grass? It;s great (I want some) lol.

Yes, You are right. He didn't wear gloves at that point but I imagined he could be looked better on wearing the gloves...

Thanks,

The grasses are real.
It was part of a flower basket for decoration.
I found it at my sister-in-law's house in Louisiana...
She didn't remember where she got that.

Thanks,
