Nice idea and well executed, but your Wittmann figure is too tall (he should be the shortest), and his head looks like 1/32 compared to his team mates.

Wow, that is some impressive painting! I've never imagined so much detail could be shown on 1/35 scale.

Very nice!

Sorry. Not shortest, but two other guys were taller.

Thank you gents for the kind comments. I appreciate very much. I painted sometime last year. The sculptor is one of my favorite Yoshitaka Hirano.

Excellent job of painting the figures but unfortunately they do not capture the difference in heights between the various crew members. The biggest person in Wittman's crew was Balthasar Woll, the gunner. As can be seen in this photo he is quite a bit taller than anyone else in the crew and I haven't seen a build yet that accurately depicts this considerable disparity in size - you could almost use a figure from one or two scales up (like 1/32) to capture this difference. Good luck!
