Warsaw Ghetto Uprising 1943 [sculpting 65mm]

[nico37]

Hi and happy new year to all of you !

Here is my latest project, in order to be part of a GB in a french forum dedicated to "Street fightings", i decided to create a vignette in memory of the uprising in the Warsaw jewish guetto in January-April of 1943.
So there will be at least two figs, a woman with MP40 looking throught a window and a crouching teenager ready to launch a german grenade. I'll also sculpt the building frontage.

Here is the woman, almost finished, i'll sculpt the hand directly on the scratched MP40:

Ande here is the teen' beginning

So as i want as little mistakes as possile on this vignette i'm ready for your critisms

Cheers

Overall appearance is quite good.
The boots seem too big.
The torso seem quite narrow compared to the rest of the body.
Good luck!

Hi,

thanks for comment T50, yes the boots seem too big, especially the left one, so i reduced it since the pics were taken.
Maybe the torso seems narrow because of the shade on the pic number 3 ?

Cheers

Hi all,

here are the pics of the first fig finished, but some areas where the mat varnish shines bright !!!! I'll try to correct that later:

Now the second fig's on the workbench...

Hi, good to see such subject, not many people recognize difference between Warsaw uprising '44 and Getho uprising in '43. Looking forward to see next figure.

I once also sculpted a street fighter but never finished it - good to see your progress.
