Hello all, I hope all is well. Here are two shots of the first fig completed for my 1.72 dio for the seeing red campaign.





2 more pics in my gallery if ur interested.

Great job..! I actually thought the first picture was of a 1/35th scale dio (meant as a compliment )

Is it the camera, or is the figure a bit shiny?

How did you make the grass field?

Steen

Thanks Json, yes he is a bit shinny. They are so small I was going to wait till they are all done to spray them with dull coat. The grass is Silfor. A model railroad product.

Looking very nice indeed! I presume you did the weld seam on the turret youself? Did you use stretched sprue glued on and textured with a knife?
I did so on my Jumbo Sherman and it looks similar. (btw, it's about finished and I should post a couple of pics here...)
Nice build, keep up the good work

It looks really good Sticky! I especially love the way you put leaves and things in the grass. Nice touch!

The word faultless springs to mind.1/72? wow!
My tired old eyes and arthritic fingers are jealous.I love the ground work and the kit itself is amazing. Excellent job , very inspiring.

Thank you very much Gentlemen.

Emeritus,

Yes the welds are styrene treated with glue, as well as some touch up with my pyrograve. Post up those jumbo pics I would love to see them!

ThorsHammer,

The leaves are actually part of the grass matt!

Deusmex,

Mine eyes were not up to the task as well! Thanks to binocular magnifiers I was able to put this thing together!
