Changing up the scene a little bit and creating a vignette of a sniper set during the German offensive through the Ardennes. The sniper has taken up a perch on the second floor of a blown out farmhouse. Taking a break from the build as I await a delivery of Verlinden bricks to continue construction of the exterior... here are some progress shots for now:














Stay tuned!

Thought by the title it was COD-MW inspired, nice job so-far!

Really good start! The blasted bits of wood on both floors look convincing..

Thank you all for your words and following of this build. Brief update for today: started laying some homemade ceramic bricks to the first floor exterior...

First floor:



Second floor:



I tried to get a clearer photo but for some reason could not get the camera to focus closer to the chair... there is a canteen and spare mag, also a couple of spent casings on the ground.

A few exterior shots:


"Scoped In"






Thanks for looking! Onto the next one!
