Hi all,

I'm new here at planet figure and I'm not really a figure builder/painter... but I do my best to add some live into my dioramas with them.

I always try to improve a bit more with every figure I paint, but I must admit... I need more practice....

Ok, here are two civilian figures I almost finished for a current dio...

They are in 1:35 and converted a bit to be todays civilians..

The first one should be angry...

and the reason for his angry....

And here's the second figure... again converted...

And with its base....

All apinting was done exclusively with acrylic paints from Vallejo.

Let me know what you think!

Regards
Volker

Well I think you are quite good at figures. My only suggestion is to add some depth to the first angry guys hair to add some more definition. Maybe a wash in a darker color but other than that I think there are really good. I am interested in seeing the finished diorama. The destroyed tank looks awesome!

Welcome Volker.

Very good work with the conversions and the painting is very good also, you are definetely on the right track.

As for that wrecked tank i agree it looks fantastic, i am eagerly looking forward to seeing this diorama finished.

Hi Volker and welcome to the planet!

Its nice to see that your just as good with the figures at with the wreck.
