Hi Jerry,
Hope you're feeling better.
Glad to see that you're still plugging away at this one ... looking forward to seeing more!

Jerry, this is indeed turning out to be a beaut! A teaser is all we need, sometimes.... It's what keeps us coming back.
I have to admit, I don't know how you guys do it, juggling several works at the same time? I have four or five kits started, but once I began my dio I put them all in boxes, and only take them out now and again to make sure they still exist!
Looking forward to more of this one, and your paratrooper, and your others...
Later, and keep up the great work!

Yay! I'm glad this is still alive. Looks promising, but you knew that already, right? Hahaha. I've got to get my butt in gear, too much time not enough model building...

Seemingly endless would more aptly refer to my build, not this one Jerry, and of course we are watching... you are worth the time spent .

Hey Jerry - maybe in the spirit of Dave's note, I forgot about the car(?) funny because now I remember the build! Haha - tough to catalog the whole of your builds in one place in my memory! I try!!! Sort of a mental Rolodex of cool ideas! Ha -
Anyway - look forward to the next post -
Cheers

That is a great angle you've taken that picture from Jerry, it brilliantly shows off the figure composition.

@Romain-thanks buddy-hope your stay in the krankenhaus wasn't too bad this time.
@Karl-thanks buddy. I wanted to take this shot from that angle before I put the door on the passenger side,so you got all of the casualties in one picture. This is as far as I got before I had to start my para build.
You can also see here how I solve the shoulder up in the air on the officer. To be fair,I did have this planned all along,just didn't know for sure what his shoulder would be propped up against.

I missed this! Damn. I like the arrangement of things, the figures really blend with the colors on the diorama itself, too.
Keep it up!
