Giving up the Ghost

[Rob Westerman]

Finished this little dio recently! Maybe to much armor for this forum but I've never put so much figures on a dio!
Figures are from Alpine, Dragon, Corpus and the Bodi, some converted with a mix of Magic Sculpt and Green Stuff. Heads and hands from Hornet, some heads from Alpine.
Figures painted with Vallejo acrylics, Schwimmer and Jagdpanzer with Tamiya.
Cheers,
Rob.

Very nice indeed Rob - I like the way you’ve painted the faces of the figures so that they don’t look like classic heroic types; the two standing in front of the Jagdpanzer actually look like tired, frightened youths, & your superimposition of the photo onto the base is a great touch.

Great work here love the figures , base ,TD and really love the Schwimmwagen. One thing I would like to see the tank sitting deeper into the groundwork as you can see the soldier beside it ( and the depth of the other footprints) has is sole half sunken into the ground work so the bottom tank track should be sunken a lot more I think. I absolutely love how you have used the tan colour picture as the base as it blends in so nicely with the soil colour. Great job!!!

Thank you all for your kind replies!
@MrBMB: good point about the Jagdpanzer. Its not fixed to the base yet, so I will change this!
@Erik: maybe the next Twenot meeting!

Nice work, very creative setting with the B&W pic over the base.
