Ok Chaps, I’ll give it a go.Here’s my mediocre effort.

Alpine’s 1/16 “The Charge “

. Pretty standard apart from the helmet straps which were made from masking tape and a bit of PE.

Groundwork from RIS leaves and styrene tubing. Acrylics throughout.

Originally painted this as a commission when it was released nearly 50 years ago. Then it was probably painted in Humbrol or possibly Pelican Placca as I was experimenting at the time. I don't remember it being such a pain to work with back then. Maybe the fact i now only have one eye and my 70 year old hands are not so clever manipulating such a lump. By today's standards the casting is really poor with few undercuts and bad positioning of joints. It's a huge chunk of metal and there is shed loads of Milliput involved because of the poor fit. I obtained this from ebay in 2013 and it has been on and off my bench since then. Some discrepancies with the anatomy, very large right hand and feet and the face lacked detail considering its size. Painted with various acrylics this time round and pleased to finally have it in my cabinet.

"Min soldat någonstans i Sverige"
The Bodi 1/35 - Swedish infantry WW2 resin figur.
Painted in acrylics. Cigaret is a piece of plastic rod, smoke is made from aquarium filter cotton.
The top of the rifle (the barrel) was broken of so i had to make a new. That was done by aluminium tubes from Albion Alloys.
Making the base was great fun and brought some life to a somewhat dull uniform.
