WWII Paratrooper Head - 101st Normandy

This head is based on the famous 101st Airborne and their historically accurate appearance jumping into Normandy early on June 6th, 1944. Orders were issued across the division for their faces to be painted black using burned cork to help camouflage their bright skin in the darkness. The face paint itself varies from sparse to very, very thorough, which made me really question how to make these in a way that wasn't socially suspect. I think the result does get the historical appearance across though and yields a great addition to any 101st Paratrooper figures you may have missing their correct face paint. Of course, each head features additional side printing showcasing the Paratrooper chincup with straps as well as their standard M1 helmet straps unbuckled as they would generally be once on the ground and in combat. 

Includes x1 head printed on Light Nougat
