A little home for the holidays project, inspired by Jerry's recent Fireman Vignette. Extended with home w/ the flu ...
I was in the mood for something different, I've never done a Luftwaffe Figure. Going w/ Italy 1944 - Luftwaffe Blue and Italian Camo.
Starting w/ old Tamiya figure (perhaps from the old Pak75 kit) that had good posture for running. Want to get that feeling of movement & motion.
Camo next !

Getting there...
Some of the equipment in place. Trying to give it that full battle rattle look. Bouncing around as the figure runs.
Hatch to scratch some bandoliers so I could get them flapping around.

And the base...
This may make more sense an help show why the figure is doing what it's doing.

I think you have a problem with the photo sharing. Nothing is showing up for me.
