Dragon 1/16 Schutz ( kampfgruppe Hansen 1944 ) on base and slight improvements

[Alan 45]

Well it looks like all that practice I put in on those 40mm figures payed off I'm quite pleased with this one


I bought this at last years Telford show and I've been itching to do it since then but I knew my skill level wasn't there so I did quite a bit of practice on 1/35 1/48 and 40mm figures so if I could do it on smaller scales bigger wouldn't be a problem


Here's the pics and comments welcome











Done the base

and added decals to belt buckle and collar and put a bit of red on his nose

and sorted out the but stock ( thanks joe)

Hi Alan.


You have done a good job on this,it's never easy to go from a small scale to a larger scale.


I like the 5'oclock shadow and his pistol holster.

[Guest]

I am impressed!!!! Are you going to build a base for it? Please tell us how is going too look like?

[Alan 45]

Cheers guys I appreciate it


I have started a base its just snow with tufts of grass I'll post a pic tomorrow when it's dry

This is so well done 120% I'm so envious Alan but as you have so rightly put the practice has paid off.


There is so much detail on this I don't know what to say but it's just fantastic to view and I'll be viewing this again.


Awesome

Great work Alan. Nicely painted and filtered etc. My only comment for a critical eye would be the machine gun stock looks too clean and more plastic than wood. Great build though

[Lee W]

Excellent, well done mate

That's really well painted, the folds of fabric look very good & you've captured his face very nicely Alan.


I agree with Joe about the MG 42 stock though - it slightly detracts from an otherwise top-notch figure

[Alan 45]

Cheers guys all sorted now
