Following my recent course of making comments on things I know nothing about, I imagine that sculpting a 'likeness' of a specific individual is a whole different ball game to sculpting just a generic 'face'.
But anyway... 'Home Guard' is somewhat removed from SCW, even with my usual laxity on topic drift matters.
Hemmingway (and perhaps a cameraman) would be kind of cool.
From pictures I've seen of George Orwell, I think Mr Hicks sculpted his real face in any case.
