British Airborne Officer, Arnhem 1944

[Black Army]

Hello All,
This is my last paintjob on Darko Prenosil’s sculpt (Scale 1/9). It will be a future release by Black Army Modells.
I used pictures from the film A Bridge Too Far and the book The British Soldier from Jean Bouchery. It was my first camo in this scale and enjoyed very much.
We also printed this figure in Scale 1/16, so will available for speed painters too. The small one’s boxart is also ready, made by Gábor Szabó, but Gábor is very busy this time, so his pictures are coming later.
Cheers,

Balázs

Fine job on the painting and really pulls out the likeness to Connery. Such a fine film!
As this is a digital sculpt I believe it would be brilliant if they could produce in a range of scales to attach to some of the very fine full figures of British Airborne that are out their.
Cheers
Mat

My friend, Gábor Szabó painted the small version. Note that this is Scale 120mm and other "brush"

Thanks for watching!
