Follow Me!

“Follow Me!” - 2nd Ranger Regiment at Omaha Beach.

This older 120mm figure from Dream Catcher Miniatures was modified in a number of ways, most notably a new head from Kirin, helmet from Warriors, hands from Royal Models, Thompson from Verlinden, and a completely reworked left arm.

The repurposed French tank turret is an older Kirin item, mounted on a scratch-built casemate of the type used in the Omaha Beach defenses.

I’m a little late for the 80th anniversary of D-Day, but that was my inspiration.

Brilliant finish, the wet trousers and clinging sand are great details, great ground work and a beautifully painted figure as usual, love it.

Cheers Simon

Very well done, as Steve said, the touch on the trousers is excellent.

Thank you very much, Steve, Mobo, Simon, Pew and Nap! Those kind words are most appreciated. This Ranger figure and the turret have been in my stash for years while I was trying to figure out what to do with them.

Very nice and dynamic work!
I love that the concrete is freshly grey at the shell impact point, and weathered elsewhere.
