Hello all here are some photos of a wedgie I completed today. It shows one off the less glamours sides of being a tanker. The work is about 90% to 95% done from recycled spure, the tree and the tankes wheels and bogie truck are the only pieces not sculpted by hand.
The sceen is of an American Tank crew trying to improve thier chances of survival, during the second world war. One team begins to fill thier sandbag, after the tank commander finishes his and hands the shovel to them(most tanks only had one shovel). One crewman walks towards the tank to hand his bag to the loader(generally the healthest) to toss onto the tank.

That's a nice build. Nice composition, great story.
I think it would show better in better light.
