Re: SS-ers vignette

Looks like nice painting John, but I would replace the head. It looks like it was sculpted by Picasso...

Nevertheless, nice figure.

Cheers,
Adrian

Re: SS-ers vignette

Re: SS-ers vignette

what size is it, is it 1/35 that first has a head just like Adrian said "sculpted by Picasso" but camouflage is very good the second looks very nice if you can post more pictures of that second that will be nice to see some details on that firsth figure if he is a panzer crew than that squares on the collar and lines on shoulder loop should be red like on the hat to have historycal realistic look

Re: SS-ers vignette

Your on the way John.
But as mentioned above, you should replace that head.

Re: SS-ers vignette

That's pretty good stuff John! The ammo and ammo box are particularly well done.

The head on this figures is a lot better.
I hope you did not find my Picasso remark offensive... it was directed at the sculpt and not at all at your painting, which is very attractive.

Cheers,
Adrian

Re: SS-ers vignette

No offense taken Adrian!
You are absolutely right about the head of the figure with the panzer jacket.
I have made some changes, for better I hope, on both figures and will place some more updates soon.

greetings John.

Re: SS-ers vignette

Been working on the second figure and his new head and started with a small base. It is a small piece of scorched Russian ground as the title of this vignette will be: Eastfront Veterans.

greetings John.

 

[pava]

with new head it looks very good

 

[John van Pelt]

Thank you, i have been working on the base a little more.
Figures still need a gunsling and some matt varnish.
The right figure needs 1 more pass at his face before i will be happy with it i guess. Another update.

 

[pava]

on your next figures you should put gun belts on guns to look more realistic

 

[John van Pelt]

And another update! Belts, mushrooms and the leg for the mg34.

greetz John.
