The monument was on display at this year’s BonFest, organised by John Crawford, right, in the star’s home town of Kirriemuir.

The bronze statue is the result of a two-year crowdfunding campaign which drew global support.

It depicts the long-haired rocker in a sleeveless denim jacket and tight jeans, with one arm aloft and the other clutching bagpipes.

Former AC/DC bass player Mark Evans officially unveiled the £45,000 statue at the event.

The 450kg monument is the centrepiece of a memorial garden dedicated to the singer.

Scott lived in the town as a boy before his family moved to Australia. He died in 1980.
