ANZAC Charge at Gallipoli. Aug. 1915

Pedro Hidalgo · Nov 6, 2017

Dear All,

This is my first Post in this forum that I've been following and enjoying about year ago.

I've been always interested in Gallipoli campaign and I learned from this site that there was a Diorama about Gallipoli from AC Models. I found that the composition was quite inspiring and I wanted at once to do the best rendition I could (I hope I managed to get close).

It's been a hard work and not a task for beginners.

Let me share with you the results, I hope you enjoy them as much I have enjoyed the whole process.

Painted in acrylics and inks:

Scale75
Army Painter
Vallejo
Tamiya for the terrain.

Thank You for watching and Best Regards.

Hi Richie, I'm very happy that you like the results that I got. To be honest I'm not really a beginner it was just my first post in this forum. Sorry if I confuse you with my first post.

Hi Pedro,
Neat to see another version of this traumatic sculpt from Andy.
Your painting brings another dimension to this scene.
Especially admire two uncapped figures in front rank.

Thank you JABERWOCKY.

Next??? Many things until next spring I will keep building my 1:16th King Tiger and after that I have two figures in the queue.

One is this beautiful Spanish infantry woman.

And the other is this magnificent miniature from RP Models.

Oh Mike that means a lot to me. I got heavily inspired in your rendition of that beauty that is the vignette of Chunuk Bair. I love the effects that you were able to build.

In my case are just some glazes to simulate the shaved hair and beard.

Thank you guys.

Thank you very much for your kind words. I agree with you it's a great Diorama.

Thank you Steve you are very kind.

It's not an Italian soldier, she is spaniard. She belongs to the BRILAT." Light airlifted brigrade".

The mascot of the unit is a gosshawk but because of the difficulties to tame them, she bears a Harry's Eagle.

It was an original sculpt by Luis Angel Ruiz Fernández that won the 1st prize in the Spanish Army miniature's contest in 2016.

After that a short run was produced and I was lucky enough to get one.

I'm happy that you like it.

Best regards.
