One step closer in finishing the Brown Bess for my 1/6 AWI 42nd Highlander Bust. Carved the Hammer, Frissen, spring, lock plate and trigger guard from lead. Actually flatten a .50 cal black powder ball and cut the shape I needed, and then used scalpel and files to finish. Now a final paint job and weathering and I can articulate the bust....
