Hi All,
I like to show you, my latest work, is a different (for me) vignette, based in this picture:
I haven't sculpt skills, I spoken with my good friend Antonio Meseguer, and he modelling the figures for me, first I prepare the tracks with AFV Models T-34 track kit:
Both figures was painted with Vallejo and Lifecolor acrylic paints:
The paving stone was engraved in a plaster piece, the pin are for situate perfectly the tracks in the ground:
Finally, the result is this:
I hope you like it.
Best Regards All.

Hi
What a lovely piece of work. The sculpting, composition, painting, are superb. It's the sort of thing I'd expect to see awarded Gold Best of Show at any major model show. Well done and thank you for sharing it with us.

Wow, that is Top stuff!
You guys do a top pair as the boys do in the vignette.
Your friend should commercialize the figures.
Well done

Fantastic Joaquin. I have echo what Alan said regarding pieces like this do so well at major competitions. It has it all, idea, composition, sculpt, painting, and just general WOW factor for something so small and capturing something that is totally unique.
