Wow brilliant picture I'll have to look for one in 72nd ,stretchers could do with a few bodily fluid stains........settle down we don't want any smutty innuendos. DaveFound this.
Seems there was one.

Not so sure….definitely not on the left (near side) side, but the right hand side could be…..and it certainly would once the casualties are in. In fact, once the casualties are loaded it might be hard to close it again :surprised:
I've assembled the two figures. There were quite a few seaplanes to remove but this was pretty easy once I got used to it. I took a while though.
There are quite a few gaps though which need filling now they've been assembled. I guess this will take a whole too.
Ill get there, slowly but surely.

Don’t you just love autocorrect :thumb2: Figures look good to me. They take longer to clean up than people realise…..
especially puttees!
Not done many at larger scale, but when I have I’ve been tempted to replace them with foil strip. It’s probably quicker than clean up

The figures will set this off very nicely. I would imagine there would be a step of some sort to enable the nurses to get in and out easier.
Bill, you have lost me :smiling:Do you ever make a post then wish you had read the previous page first?

We discussed this on pages three and four Scottie

Say's the expert on such things, I remember you making some at some point Neil.
I though this was a new word for them :smiling3:
I haven't had much bench time recently but have made a bit of progress.
The figures have been primed and a black wash applied. Now time to paint them. I can't put it off forever.
I've also added a step to back of tbe ambulance and weathered the ambulance with washes and pigments. I've tried to create a dusty look.

They look nice figures. They often do take a lot of clean up and sorting out but definitely add a lot of interest to model.
Coming along very nicely.
Well that was fun and quite difficult. My first attempt at figures. I'm not going to build a base but once I've varnished these figures and maybe weathered them a bit to be in keeping with the ambulance, I'll publish some better photos in the completed section.
I think I need to read up more on painting figures. I looked at a few blogs and videos including Tim's recent SBS, but like anything it's going to take alot more practice.
The eyes in particular were very difficult and looking at this picture the wounded solidier looks like his mascara has run. I'll touch that up before varnishing
