    Operation Market Garden

    now I've done that little winter armoured car I thought I'd make a start on this little vignette


    I've started on the figures first [ATTACH]116223.IPB[/ATTACH]

    I've swapped out the German wounded troop for a Brit , I used the arm and head from the kit to give it a more animated pose [ATTACH]116226.IPB[/ATTACH]

      Looking very good Alan.


      The Dragon figures works very well...almost, the ones that I've been building all this time.


      Which is your opinion about them? You prefer, maybe, an other brand?

        I like them , the uniforms are great the only thing that's poor are the faces , there's not much definition in them


        I'm yet to find a set of figures that have good faces , tamiya are getting better but there not enough of them with good faces


        Best I've found are the miniart figures

            Real nice work so far...This isn't a critasisim and shoot me down if u were about to do it anyway


            But if I was u I would sand down the back of the figure on the stretcher so he will lie down more oh natural..and as I said please don't think I am been funny when I say that

                  Walking wounded, [ATTACH]116263.IPB[/ATTACH]

                  [ATTACH]116264.IPB[/ATTACH]

                  I've left his arm off so I can position it properly on the guy helping him [ATTACH]116265.IPB[/ATTACH]

                    As John (geegad) has pointed out I do need to sand down the back of the guy on the stretcher, I have done this as best as I can due to the left arme being part of the figure and if I file down any further I'm going to have a flat piece on that arm so I've taken two photos


                    This one with him on the stretcher [ATTACH]116277.IPB[/ATTACH]

                    and this one on the floor [ATTACH]116278.IPB[/ATTACH]

                    I can put the stretcher on the kuble ambulance

                      Not a bad pose and they fitted without any adjustments
