3rd Fallschirmjager rgt Sicily

[razor]

Thanks for Looking.
My impression of the 3rd FR watching the Allied landings.

The rifleman is an Alpine figure with arms from Alpine SS tanker and a Hornet head for the right expression, his boots are from an old Warriors figure as I found the originals too small. Extra water bottle and replacement grenade head are from the bits box.
The junior officer I'm going to keep original apart from using a head from the first figure.
Base shrine is from Plus-model, not sure about the Fasces yet so its only blue tacked.
As always any comments or advice is welcomed.

Nice: good pairing and context.

Personally, I'd say lose the Fasces... they don't look right (too large and, anyway, did they go around adding them to what looks like an older monument?)

Excellent work, Paul. Alpine always turn out superb castings, & they're a great place to start a conversion from.

Nice work Paul, keep going as I am following.
