Totally agree with Nick!! This WIP approach is such a good idea, your photos are top notch and the painting of the figures is just as nice as in "Don't Cry"

So big congratulations again!!!!!

I pity the poor viet though, the Rickscha is quite big...and the 2 GIs are big fellows too! Hope the road is level..or maybe even sloped downward a little (not too much though as it has no brakes)!

Cheers

Romain

Alex, You're style is very refreshing.
Some of the colours you use reminds me of JBA's work
Thanks for posting all this

Hi Alex,

minimalistic, but perfect in every respect!

Did you have a photo as reference?

Cheers

Fantastic use of these two GI figures- they really look the part sitting in the back of the rickshaw. Excellent conversion work on the rickshaw and the driver too.

Great, now I know what I could do with my leftovers of the Field kitchen...
also a pretty nice composition of colors, altough the two GIs seem a bit to blue... but maybe they´ve got the blues

wait, this stragely reminds me of Good morning Vietman... maybe you want to add a small radio?

Hi Thomas! Only my imagination.

Hi Fabian No, I don't. Everything is quite enough.
