Alpines 1/16 WW2 US Infantry







one of my latest figures. This is the Alpine US NCO. We all know of the great quality of Alpines figures so I'm not gonna dwell on that. Figure is painted as always in Vallejo acrylics.

5 Man US Marine Stretcher Team from AC Models




















I've integrated the kit base with some celluclay, gravel, PE palm fronds,twigs and moss. I'm hoping to get to paint later tonite. I put sticks in the predrilled holes that will accept the brass pins in 1 foot of each figure. I inserted sticks so that the holes are not closed by runny celluclay and white glue. Will keep you all posted as I go.











here is a couple of boxart photos of a US Marine stretcher team by AC Models. They are in 75MM and was quite a fun project. Figures are done in Vallejo acrylics along with MIG pigments and various PE palm fronds and the like.

Life Miniatures Stalingrad Dude...

Here is my latest work. It's the excellent bust by Life Miniatures of a German Grenadier at Stalingrad. I'm not sure about the glasses so I just left them on unfastened so the client can decide how to display him. As always Vallejo Acrylics and Citadel for the metalics.






 













Here are some pics in progress...
