Here is my latest work. It's the excellent bust by Life Miniatures of a German Grenadier at Stalingrad. I'm not sure about the glasses so I just left them on unfastened so the client can decide how to display him. As always Vallejo Acrylics and Citadel for the metalics.

Yea the corporal chevrons were actually a request by the client but it definitely added something to the figure. Thanks for your comment.

Joe and Jazz, thanks a lot!

Thanks for your comments guys.

No pastels, just some earth tones applied very carefully and diluted with water about 50% to give it that feathered look. I applied light tones over dark for some tonal variations. Thanks again.

it's possible you might be right about the chevrons but the client is very happy with it. Thanks for your comments.

comments aside, I really dig the Russian penal colony figures. That is really interesting to me. Great stuff!

thanks for the comment on the groundwork as I try not to get too elaborate because I do not want to detract from the figure.

been quite a while since I have posted but I have been busy with many projects at one time. I figured I'd post this commission I snuck in between the 3 projects I have going. This is Mitches Military Models 120MM US paratrooper sculpted by Maurice Corry. Great figure sculpt as we who are...

Thanks Carl.

thanks for your comments guys. I'm happy you like it!

exactly! You have hit on the whole point of the diorama. Thank you very much as that is what I was trying to convey.

Here is my latest diorama titled "Shell Shock". It depicts a bunch of British WW1 infantry toward the end of the battle at the Somme. it is titled "Shell Shock" because the young private in the overcoat has lost his nerve as the platoon readies to go over the top. It was very difficult to...
