WIP Alpine – US tank crew 1/35

[fermatgom]

I’m planning to build a Sherman tank (the first AFV for me in maaany years) and I thought to put some figure on it. In the end that’s what I like to paint lol.
Some pictures of the figure in the state it is. These Alpine figures are extremely well sculped. The folds on the clothes are superb!
I’m used to 54 mm figures, so this for me is tiny!! I used the airbrush to preshade and paint with the brush over it. All with acrylics.
Any comment is welcome!

I like these figures but have never got round to painting them. You are doing an excellent job, well done.

 

[fermatgom]

Thank you Bob. You should try them, they are addictive!

I will try the German Para's, the latest one's.

After some delays the figure is finished. It is ready to accompany the Sherman tank that I'm also about to finish! Hope to post the final result soon!
