1/16 82nd Airborne WWII

[STJohnson]

Hello everyone

This my latest figure and the second 1/16 scale figured I've ever done.

The figure is by Alpine Miniatures #16004 and the box art was painted by Gino Poppe, who's work I really admire.

I used the box art and photos of Ginno's painting as my guide. I did similar ground work and sign with a few minor changes. I made the base out of MDF and the sign from scratch using plastic sheet.

I painted using acrylics with some oils. It was allot of fun!!!

Thankyou for looking
