Over the last couple of week I have been working on a little base using the a cut away part of a T-34 to display some Geman figues so here are some shots of the base in a near complete stage :





Feel free to comment I would be most interest to hear what you think

Best wishes,

Jerry

It's the bees knees - keep going with it. Small dios can say a lot to the viewer

Greg,

Many thanks for your comment I will try to up date it soon

Jerry

Hi Guys ,

I added the figures to this base this afternoon and am quite happy with the results feel free to comment .









Thanks for looking best wishes,

Jerry

Jeez! Great job on the figures! I especially like the middle figure, with the SS insignia and the chicken wire(?) camoflage on the helmet. Great job.

SCOTT

Nice little Dio, love the group of NCO's and officers. The camo smocks look good. Where did you get the SS man with the soft crush cap? What make is he? Cheers Geraint

Scott, thanks for your comments , glad you like the figures I am please with the way they turned out,

Geriant, The officer figure is a Dragon officer from the Kursk set with a Hornet head the mix works very well ,

I will try to put some detail shoots in the next day or two
Thanks for your comments

Best wishes,

Jerry

really nice, detail is good, compsition is good, weathering is solid.
Only thing I'd like to say (which you may have already addressed) the base needs to be painted or covered with vaneer.

Scott,

Thanks for your comments, I'll get around to doing the base next time I get the airbrush out. here are a few close ups:

Great job! I particularly like your work on the camo. smocks - very convincing! The overall scene is very well executed.
Nice work!

What brand is the T 34 you used?

Momann , it is the turret from the old Tamiya T-34-76 and the hull from a Dragon T-34/85 both were lying at the bottom of my spares box for ages

All best wishes

Jerry

In that case - Excellent use of "Spare Parts"!

exellent figures and base. the only fault i can see is that the figure wiping his face looks like something has been nibbling at his elbow.

You should see the size ofthe mosquito, yeah I agree it is a bit of a mess blown up so large, I might take thefile to it and see if I can improve it a bit.

Thanks fo your observations

Regards,

Jerry

Hi Jerry,

Figures look great, a bit of fly swotting going on? Super way to display them really excellent work.

On chap seems to have a slighly damaged elbow, scars of war?

Excellent stuff.

Al

Thanks Al ,

Good to hear from you !!

Jerry

Great figgys. Congrats on finishing

Chees Greg ,

Nice work on figures and groundwork Jerry, i like it.

Steve

Great work Jerry, very nicely presented. It helps to clear up some doubt I had myself about nicely detailed cammo uniforms looking better on a smaller diorama than on something bigger because I was thinking that maybe so much fine detail would be lost in space; it appears that I was thinking correctly. I don´t know what other peoples opinion on the matter are but it looks like you struck a perfect balance there mate.

Steve ,

Sorry about the delay responding to your kind comments , thank you I am very pleased you like it .

Mike ,

Pleased you like the size , I planned the scene to show off the figures if I used a full t-34 they would have been swapped and all the details would have been lost. thanks for your comments ,
Best wishes,
Jerry
