Philipp

Looks good Phil, following with interest.

Adam

Thanks Adam

I started on the first figure, Miniart with Hornet head:




Yeah, he's really happy to prove himself on the field of honour

Philipp

Probably because the Field of Honour in question is more of a pathetic, not entirely sufficiently armoured position armed with a popgun in the face of one of the biggest amphibious operations in history .

Great work!

Thanks

Well, he're someone to motivate him



I had a change of plans and picked the NCO from Zvezda's Halftrack crew instead. Like the other fellow he has a Hornet head, his cap still needs a little adjusting...

Philipp

Ah... this head .
I used this "Aardman-head" in the "Heresy and Confusion" diorama .

Yes, this head Too bad Games Workshop doesn't make 1/35 figures, he'd fit right in there

"Forward you dogs, to victory!"

Meanwhile the base plate is complete. I made some weld seams with a fine application of Vallejo putty and added a few of the legendary MENG NUTS!



Time to look for a suitable base...

Philipp

And here's the full setup:



I think I'll replace the binoculars, these just seem too clunky. I also think I have some photoetch belt buckles and medals somewhere, these should improve the details on Mr Chaos Berserker Officer Guy a little.



I ordered a small wooden base, same size as the cardboard here. It won't get any larger than this

Philipp

I really like the way this is coming together Philipp. Nice and simple but full of interesting details. Gotta love those Meng nuts.

Looking Great So Far!
