Hi folks,
After a stop of more than 10 years, I started a small assembly with this gun from Italeri.
The contents of the box is very simple, so I have somewhat improved it.





Gérard

Hello Gérard,

Man that is a cool little project. You have done a great job improving it. Well done man!

Gary

Thank you Gary

For now I work on the "Tractor".
I started by removing all the straps and reworked the mule







And now I make the saddle, different from what is in the kit




Gérard

The saddle is finished, I made this one



And replication







Gérard

Great job. And a very fine details. The canvas has been dramatic. And also masks.
I have made this model but in the shooting position.

Thank you!
I have not had the opportunity to see a beautiful assembly of this kit (with the mule), I decided to do it completely to see the quality of this (Simplified)kit.
I am also thinking sculpt new figures in the future for representing the Alpini in Russia.
Given the speed of execution I finish in two or three years

Gérard

I made a small introduction to give me an idea of the set




And to start the figurines






Gérard

Next step



And the beginning of the first figurine





Gérard

The figures are awesome! Great work on the saddle and harness! Nice work on the gun. What is the yellow putty/clay you use?

This is Milliput Standard Grey / Yellow

Thank you!

Gérard

The figures are stupendous!! I love the mule and the gun as well. You really made a lot of great changes to the Breda and the new details are awesome. This is going to be a super nice piece of work. Fun to watch,

"This is going to be a super nice piece of work. Fun to watch"
I could not agree more. Outstanding work.
Thank you for sharing!
Cheers!

Thank you very much!
The ensemble is temporarily stopped, other occupations take care full time.

Gérard

I continued the first figure, it still lacks some details







Gérard

This is some very good work going on here Gérard and I am sorry that I have only just found it, When this is finished please send a build feature to us here at Armorama.

Thank you Darren!
It will require some patience, I have other work in progress...

Gérard

Morning Gerard,

Terrific work as always and a great improvement on the basic kit. The figures look excellent and the mule is coming along really well. The setting will be just right for the chap who has slipped and fallen.

Talking mules, I always like these two pics



This one says, "I ain't going another hoof forward until I get some grub."



Cheers

WOW!!! That figure has really come a long way and just keeps getting better and better my friend. This is one of my favorite builds on the internet. Good work man! Excellent sculpting.
J

Great work ! I like the scene a lot, it will look great

Thank you all!

Here is the final version of the first figure, it still needs the little details (buckle, webbing, buttons)




Gérard

Very nice work ... the figures look great.

Your sculpting and scratch building look very realistic and to scale

Thank You!

Start of the second figure






Gérard

Beautiful!
