This model depicts a German Waffen SS soldier from the time of the famous Battle of Bastogne, a key engagement during the German Ardennes offensive in December 1944. Bastogne, a strategically important city in Belgium, was defended by Allied forces (mainly the American 101st Airborne Division) and was surrounded for several days by German armored and infantry units. Waffen SS units, known for their participation in fierce fighting and distinctive winter uniforms, which have been meticulously recreated in this bust, played an especially prominent role.

The YM1887 model, sculpted by renowned artist Young B Song and painted for reference by Dr. Jin Kim, stands out for its extremely realistic facial details, clothing folds, and characteristic equipment. The resin allows for remarkably sharp surface detail, and together with the generous 1/10 scale, this model is an excellent choice for those who value accuracy and modeling enthusiasts who enjoy working with airbrushes and brushes.

The kit does not include paints or glue – instead, it gives you full freedom to customize the finished effect. We recommend using acrylic or oil paints to bring out all the nuances of a winter front-line soldier's portrait.

We recommend Young Miniatures YM1887 German Waffen SS Siege of Bastogne for experienced modelers and collectors of historical busts. Difficulty level: 4/5 – requires experience working with resin and painting skills.
