Two new releases available on ebay as limited casting runs, the first is of a British para Oosterbeek 1944 and the second is of a Hitler jugend MG42 gunner Port en Bessin Normandy 1944.
I assembled the german incorrectly and left off the pistol holster and leader tab of the ammo belt.
thanks for looking.

Though it's "just another German", I do like the Hitlerjugend figure. Am I assuming right that he would be wearing Italian camo?~Gary
 
I like the German. The Brit seems to me to be similar to the DML Brit in the presentation, walking/running with one foot off the ground
Nice sculpting work
 
Very nice figures. I particularly look for a natural pose and good proportions. Both these figures clearly have them. I mainly do busts but dip into other scale figures every now and again as a particular sculpture takes my fancy. The choice of World War 2 figures is for the designer a marketing strength as a large number of modellers will buy almost anything German. I like to see British figures and especially the humble infantry but how about a French figure next. As far as I am aware no one has ever done a WW2 French infantryman. Now that Tamiya has produced a Char B, maybe now is the time for some great figures from some of the lesser modelled nations. I look forward to seeing these new figures painted, they should look great. :)

Here is a picture of the DML (Dragon) British Para in 1/16 scale

Now don't get me wrong as I realize the subject is different, it was the pose I was referring to. Also, I think the sculpting is very good.
 
Juan - I couldn't agree more! Marvelous, masterly, talented sculpting (he makes it look so effortless!!!!) but surely given the marketplace a much overused subject. French, Rumanian, Italian, Hungarian, Finn, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Canadian, Australian - there were a few other nations soldiers in WW2, gee! And that's just WW2!!

Sorry, sorry. Forgive my rant.

All the best,
Dan
 
Thanks for the kind comments, my next release is a bit different, its a Sgt. of the Gloucester regiment in Korea 1951 in 120mm, I also Have a Hessian Jaeger in 75mm C.1777 . I`ll pop some photos up later in the week.
regards to all
maurice
