With winter coming I had suddenly a need to do a "winterish" model. I had the old Dragon Raketenwerfer with crew in the stash and decided to put it on a small vignette. Since the range of the weapon was only couple hundred meters and at this late stage of war soviet armour and infantry cooperation was preaty good, I decided to call the small vignette a Himmelfahrtskommando, which is german military slang for suicide mission. Pictures were taken with two cameras - therefore the change in color. I also noticed after I took the pictures, that the gunner has in fact lost his pistol holster from the belt. I will have to fix that.

This is a great.
I’d think there would be mud and some stains on the clothing however. Especially as they are kneeling and sitting in the ground. A bit of filth n grime...
Merry x-mas.

Thanks for the comments. Completely right with the dirt on the clothing. I will adjust that.
