Hi All

Had a few figures and a willy's jeep and bits and pieces lying around and thought what the hay so I decided to make a small viginette of to SS soldiers finding an abondoned willy's along the road.

The base is from GW it's the 60mm one I added a 2 part mix of plaster of paris and woodglue for the road and once dry a gave it a coat of browns and tans to get the desired colour.

The grass is from woodland scenics and painted dark green and dry brushed with lighter greens

The figures are from AB miniatures and painted with Vallejo paints and then dry brushed.

The willy's has been sitting in the cupboard for more years then I can remember I think it's and old airfix model hence no GI transfers. The willy's was also painted with Vallejo paints and then drybrushed.

The map, newspaper and sign are from verlinden I just scaned them and shrunk them down and printed them out. The jerry cans, kar98k, MP40,ag and wooden crates are from the bits box.

Ron

Thanks guys

Always appreciate the comments

In the middle of doing a 1/72 dio called Lull before the storm. It's going to have 2 Panther Ausf-G's parked out side a garage in France getting restocked.
