Neat idea. They better swing the 37 mm around and zap that dragon behind them...

Excellent Idea... "lo slayer di drago"

that dragon belongs to my daughter, she is a far more talented artist then her dear old dad!

That is lookin good so far.

That soldier in the background of the first pic, he must be a cameraman or perhaps an extra that got in the picture accidently! #:-)

Y'never know who will pop into the picture... Viet Nam era figure I worked on and never quite like, so he remains in Figure "Purgatory" till I do figure it out.



Let me see... one ninja, one Viet Nam LRRP, One DML SS Cavalry getting a new uniform and a very funky Dragon. So does every else work station look so messy?

great dio, but maybe let me give you one advice on your german title.
if you want to name it “mouse to a giant” the correct german phrase will be "Maus zu Riese"

keep on posting

Thanks for the proper translation.

You know the old joke....

If you speak three languages or more you are multilingual;

Two languages, you are bilingual

One language, you are American


Thanks Again!

My standrd techinque is to first highlight with a lighten base color, Drybrushing, washes of Burnt Umber & Black, more dryburshing... a few drizzles of rust wash and a good rubbing with a HB graphite lead stick over operating metal parts.
