hi,
My last work is a small diorama with a Ford Mutt (academy) and masterbox figure (Charly on the left)...

I like your groundwork here, and your painting skills are great, I don't like the amount the jeep hangs over the edge, it seems too much for me. Its nice to see some of the masterbox sets being built up!

Very dynamic scene! the sense of movement is portrayed in different ways. I guess one should see this vignette irl to really appreciate it.

I've been waiting to see this set built. It looks like the guy on the Browning is about to fall off. I do like that the jeep hangs off the edge. I think it gives more of a sense of motion.

I did the figures awhile back and your right Matt,the gunner just doesn't fit right.He has to be pretty much out of the Mutt to work at all.I had posts back that it would have been very rare that a gun that size would ever be mounted on a Mutt to start.Maybe a mistake on MB's research.He's been put aside to maybe wait for a tank or guntruck.I replaced him with a Dragon fig from the stash,still a good kit for the money. Philippe,still a very nice piece of work.Nice touch with the drivers hat coming off.
