I don't understand the question. The figure is wearing infantry webbing over his raincoat, of course it's possible. Why wouldn't it be?

Good luck to them if they can get their asking price. Now not that I have the money or space but I couldn't buy anything based on those photos anyway because you can't really make anything out in them. This item is being watched in My eBay :)

It's a raincoat. http://www.aefsupply.com/ww2_rc_1.jpg http://www.aefsupply.com/ww2_rc2.jpg

Arturus Rex I think that's right

I'll try them but yes depending on how user friendly the new styrene is this could be a serious threat to Resin manufacturers of axis figures, but then again it might be good for us causing them to produce more diverse figures.

Your work looks great Piotr. What scale is it? By coincidence I have just started reading RISING 44 "The Battle for Warsaw" by Norman Davies.

He's right you know. I model mainly WW2 Allied Armour and Figures and I'm pleasantly surprised by the lack of complaints about kits here on PF. I don't mind people complaining but what's the point in moaning to your fellow modellers about the small flaws in kits - with the addendum "I hope...

Preiser do a set of German gear in 1/24 I don't know what the quality is like though. The pic is from http://www.rocousa.com/ -Pat

I like this figure's attitude very much. What kind of tunic is that?

I really like the look of those red army scouts. Thanks for posting

The way to start is to jump in with both feet, make loads of mistakes and learn that way. Prepare well, decide on a pose, refer to photos, drawings and commercial figs. Work slow. When you get stuck ask more questions here

I really like this model and I think you've done a great job with it. I have just reread Larry McMurtry's "Lonesome Dove" and this reminds me of it. It will look even better when you dirty it up a bit

I keep meaning to write to Military Modelling and ask them to republish Stan Catchpol's column. I learnt the basics of scratchbuilding from his articles. After I post this I'm going to draft my letter to Military Modelling. Anyone care to join me?

I just want to add my thanks to the PF staff who keep the Planet revolving

This is amazing. It's making my brain work in a funny way. You've opened up a world of possibilities with this. Personally I've always found the work of the German expressionists inspiring and now I'm imaging a scene by Georg Grosz or Max Beckman reproduced in this style

If you want to make papier mache yourself it's very simple. Tear up some paper as small as you can get it, newspaper is best, and leave it to soak in water. Then use a blender to shred the fibres even further. Now add your white glue, you can also add any colour you want now with any water...

I'm sculpting this figure in 1/35 to represent an NCO of the 28th Infantry division during the Battle of the Huertgen Forest Hornet head, Historex hands,Verlinden holster and Academy boots (I think). I still have a lot of cleaning up to do and I think he might be too well built around the...

Thanks Bill I'm going to try and put what I've learned to good use
