First impression: Nice sculpting and flawless casted resin. BUT the bust shows Otto Carius as Feldwebel (Sergeant) with Knights Cross and Oak Leaves which he was awarded as Leutnant and received as Oberleutnant. It's possible to fix but in this scale you will have to replicate the braiding on the shoulder boards. A bit of a letdown for a kit that sells around 50 Euro.

Yes, quite expensive. And as I wrote it has some flaws. I did some corrections to mine and it looks cool. But I still feel that the body is a bit to large and 'strong'. Pictures show that Otto Carius was a very slender person.

oh i see what you mean, in fact he was slim, this happens to the 1/6 figures also, i am preparing a new body cause it seems they think it was a Fury body. good to know what you say, greetings
