Alpine Miniatures 2nd Armored Div. Tanker

[Joe55]

Greetings all,
Here is my rendition of Alpine's fairly recent 1/16 scale release. The ammo crates and boxes were 3D printed by a friend of mine, along with the decals for their markings. Oh yes, the pack of Lucky's too. Reedees Miniatures hooked me up with the Thompson which I modified by removing the butt stock and taping on an extra mag that I fabricated. Thanks Steve! Hope you all like the way he turned out.

Steve I've not heard an expression exactly like that before, I don't think. I get it and I accept it!

Excellent work! Love the HBT pattern on the coverall.

Thanks Taesung! When it comes to HBT I like to just suggest the weave in various areas of the figure, not throughout.

Very pleased that you like the way he turned out.

Thanks Mario! Yeah, I took several pics indoors and on a whim I took a few out in the backyard. Just thought it looked cool!

Thank you Simon! Something that is difficult to see in the pic is the weave of the material on the jacket's waistband and collar. Let me tell you that it simply looks amazing and how Alpine pulled this off is a headscratcher!

Thanks again,
Joe
