German SS MG42 Gunner Life miniatures.

[Gellso]

Finished this tonight but will snag tomorrow.
If you ever want to paint this bust make sure you get the mg belts, clips and positions in place first.
I did it last and there was not one profanity that didn't come out of my mouth during the hours of fitting them.

Other than that the bust went together really well and is a great sculpt.

Superb Grant...love the balance of tones/colours...and face is spot on to my eye

Great to see a piece from you mate...a rare treat

Cheers Ron....always a pleasure to chat with you mate, seen as how you taught me everything I know!!

 

[kagemusha]

Not true mate...I just threw the ideas out there...and you made them your own...and a fine job you made of it

Excellent paint work! Are the helmet decals hand painted or decals?

That's a lovely job you have done Grant, have missed seeing your work on here lately, seems you haven't lost your touch though.

Hi Steve, hope you're doing well.

Yeah, it has been a while. I've been doing a lot of Warhammer stuff...there's loads to learn from doing them you can take to larger figure painting.

Thank you for all comments.

I have searched high and low for decals? Did you make them yourself? If not where can I source them?

Again great work and thanks for the response.

Lovely work on this one, really like the way you have done the helmet and the weathering on all the equipment. The bullets I enjoy looking at as well
