Hi
I am just starting the Coree German 200mm 1944 figure. As I have two I wanted to give one of them a new head. I have primed the body but am just finishing off his head.
I still need to do his eyes a bit more, hair and helmet strap
Thanks
Ryally

I like the first eyes better.
Is that any help?
No figures but that the first comes across better.

Thanks Jeff
The first pic is the last, the others below it were just to show the sides of his face a little.
Thanks

Just starting on the body, I will do the base colours first before I add his arms and head.
The parts on this figure kit go together really well. Worked on the eyes a little more as well.
Thanks for looking

Hi All
Just starting to play around with colours for the camo and test fitting a helmet from a different kit. Oh trying the head on the body too
I will be doing a little scene for him as well

Hi
About 3/4 the way through now, just put the left arm on and will start doing the camo on it and clean it up a little.
One question, does the magazine pouch he is wearing in real life stiff at the back or do they bend.
Pics of the real thing on a Greman would be great if anyone has them.
Thankyou

Still going on this one
I am just about to start weathering the boots and trousers then I will start on his equipment
I am not sure which helmet to use, I havent weathered the field grey one yet.
Which helmet do you like better?

I like the first one the best. The second one seems to give the illusion of a narrow pointy head . Really nice work!!!!!!

I am really liking the first helmet as well. It seems a little better scaled as Jim said, and it adds a nice contrast to the rest of the figure, adding emphasis to the face which has been very nicely painted. 200mm seems like a really nice scale to work in for figure kits.

Definately the first figure, the scale of the helmet looks much better
