WIP Critique Alpine Panzer crew 1/35th.

[housecarl]

I've been doing a bit on these, a lot of the details still need painting, and everything weathering. I replaced the figures ammo with brass offerings. The barrel is Great Wall, the ammo and crates are from Cove Models. Groundwork is my usual Milliput and micro balloons.

[Dennis]

Hello Carl nice one mate the "brass offerings" paid off. They look as though they are thinking why is the weather always s---y?
See you at Euro

Great figs Carl, and finw work all around, especially the whites, very well done. I like the snow flakes, looks fresh and more crisp than baking soda. Waht is it! Bravo job!!


Cheers, Ski.

Great paintjob Carl! An interesting scene.

Lovely painting Carl, you've created quite a nice little scene there. I would like to see a few splatters of mud and dirt on the knees and lower legs, but perhaps ground has frozen too hard for the slush to melt yet??

 

[T50]

Nice job all around!

 

[rheath]

Good work Carl, the setting is very well done - just 1 point I would tone down the linings around the pockets and seams on the troo's, they seem a little harsh to my eye. Thanks for posting.

 

[Dr Force]

Lovely scene Carl........are those Tiger tracks actually attached to a Tiger

 

[housecarl]

Thanks again. They all need weathering yet, and some adjusting here and there.
Dave the tracks were the spares from the Tiger in question.

Carl.

I think the ammo rounds you used are for a 75mm gun of Pz IV and StuG.

Hi Carl!

Nice to see you use Hornet heads in German figures!
Nice job!

 

[housecarl]

I think the ammo rounds you used are for a 75mm gun of Pz IV and StuG.

Taesung my plan was to put them with a Tiger, until I realised they were the wrong calibre.
Thanks Pedro, glad you like them. Although Alpine heads are superb, I always struggle to paint them.
Carl.

the snow and the frosted look on the fuel barrel looks great'look foward to the finnish.
