I'm trying to plan a Normandy dio, with a US soldier pausing after shooting a few Germans. Anyway, which are the best plastic kits to use to make dead soldiers (in suitable posistions ). What do you guys use? Thank you! Harry

I'm doing a Kursk dio with a dead panzer crew member in it, and have found nothing suitable, so I am attempting to make one from scratch almost entirely. There is a really cool book called "Bill Horans Military Modelling Masterclass", that has alot of shots that could give you some good ideas on how to make your own. If nothing else, check it out to see how great his work is.

Thanks guys! AndyD, I was thinking Normandy (D-Day), and I probably will 'kitbash' a few, because resin (whilst very good!) is a little expensive for a teenage boy! Thanks again, and I will check out Verlinden, if just for reference! Harry
