Looking good mate, even though ive seen these in the flesh they do show more detail shown as a picture

 

[Guest]

Yes i agree with you there Paul, of which the mould seems Doh!! gutted its not noticeable on the model but it is on the pics.

Very nicely painted Nige, the faces are spot on and the camo is very well done

 

[Guest]

Cheers Graham, the one set of soldiers should be wearing german gray jackets but i wanted them to have the same cam as the SS jackets. I've got 2 bikes to go onto the Dio of which the 1 DR is taking a leak and decided to leave him in the standard uniform.

As Graham said well painted, as you said shame about the mold seams.

I couldnt paint the camo in that size thats for sure!

I think your figures look superb Nige even at 3/4 times bigger than they are , to the naked eye they must look even better if you know what I mean , if you don`t mind me saying have you thought about lightly dry brushing the jack boots with a medium to dark grey colour to bring out the crease details

I do like a dio , will be following this one Nige

Hi Richy thanks for the tip mate, what i've done now is dry brushed the boots with some dark brown as a mud/dust effect. But thats a great tip i will be using in the future.

Wow!, that's quite an array of figures you have there. Very nicely painted up as well and I'm sure are going to look excellent when put together in a diorama. A 1/35 figure normally takes me a couple of hours so you have a lot of time invested in those.

It did take me a while Ritch i've done all my models in work, it does take me ages to do and it all depends on how quiet/busy we are.
