Neil's 1-35 Liberty Ship Diorama

[Jim R]

They look very good to me. They will certainly fit so well within the completed model.

Cheers Jim.

I’m pleased to report that the paint has yet to be chosen for the decorating so I have been able to get to the bench and make a start on the third batch of disembarking GI’s.
So here they all are in their ’Frankenstein’ state on my 3D-printed base mock-up ,which saves me from damaging the actual model whilst I tweak and reposition them . Apart from the two at the gangway directing traffic the others will not necessarily be placed as they are positioned in these shots.












Having set up the poses I will now work on them in pairs this time to keep my concentration levels high and hopefully avoid too much sloppiness.
Thanks to you all for sticking with this.
Neil

Neil,
I wish I had your skills to modify figures. Every time I try they look like they have fallen in a threshing machine, caught fire then beaten out with a shovel.

Thanks Paul - very amusing but not true from what I've seen.

I agree with Scottie. Figure adapting is a real skill. You have that skill for sure.
