Very nice. That's what I like to see, German stuff as knocked out or captured.

Heh heh - DITTO!

Nice job Eric!

Gunnie

glad you like it...........

Eric

Excellent dio. Does the jagdpanther have an interior? (Anytime I see open hatches, I want to look!) The figures very impressive also, could you provide a little information about their pedigree, as it were? I say again, excellent!

Eric

Lovely scene dude I like the figures and the paintjob of them.
The tank looks good too

Ik heb alleen een vraag..... Vraag..... geen kritiek...
Is dit een midwinter scene???? Ik vraag dit omdat het gras er in mijn ogen nog een beetje te fel groen uitziet dat is iets dat je alleen maar ziet als het in de herfst heel lang mooi zacht weer is geweest. en dan `s winters allen de eerste twee dagen sneeuw dat het er zo groen uitziet.
Je kan er over vallen en je kan het niet doen persoonlijk vind ik niet dat het erg afbreuk doet aan het geheel. Je moet er maar naar willen zoeken :-) :-) :-)

Wat een zeikerd ben ik he :-)

any way good dio dude

Excellent job. The fresh fallen snow and accumualation on the Jagdpanther are great. I have only one thing to say and I could be way off here.....The grass looks like fresh growing spring grass. It seems too green. I would tan then down a little. Sorry if I'm wrong.....Since I got married I have found I'm "wrong" 95% of the time. still a great diorama and it certainly has that cold feeling to it.

Great Diorama. The figures are great also. By the way who makes the figures?

Jachammer, thank you, thank you, I thought I was the only one! #:-) #:-) #:-)

Very nice dio. I like it, nice off set on the layout and good mix of composition. Very nice.

Jackhammer - Roadkill - Me too - 95% wrong!

I like it, very nice overall aesthetic.

The more I look at this the more I like it. Simple, effective, like I said very nice. I haven't gotten into painting figures yet but the kits that I've seen I've always wondered how to use them in a scene. You did a very good job with giving these guys the proper look of caution that fits in well with your title for the piece.

Regarding the one comment you got about the color you used for your grass. I don't know what weather conditions in Germany are but here in Colorado the only thing we know about the weather is if you don't like it stick around 15 minutes and it will change. Your scene could take place in early spring after the grass has grown and after a late snow.

Hi, nice model. The snow appears too "thick" what did you use for it?
Have you tried microballoons?????? Something to think about.

I too like the figures.

Great job, Eric!!

Good work on the figures, the tank looks "abandoned and captured", and the scene looks very cold!

VERY NICE WORK - CONGRATULATIONS

To all who gave comment ,

The grass will be taken care of . It is indeed to green for the time of year . ( December )
And i will try to fix the the snow here and there .

Now for the figures : The figures are from Dragon ( One of the new series )

Tyey are very well sculped ( It that the right word ? ) and have a good fit . The only thing that gave some difficulties are the woolen coats . You have to use some putty here and there to fill the gaps .

It was very educational to read your comments and reply's.

Till we meet again.

Greetings

Eric

Very nice diorama.

You must be a newlywed. Give it some time and you will see that your are wrong 100% of the time.

Patrick

ROFL ! I started reading this thread from top down, and I was thinking the EXACT same thing when I saw the 95% remark ! Well, there must be some good in marriage, too....... I guess ? :-)

I know this is the armor talk forum, but what type and manufacturer of paint (enamel, acrylics, oils) did you use on the figures. What colors?

Thanks, GR8Voyager

The paint i used for the figures body's in Humbroll paint . and a final wash with burnt umber oils
The faces are painted with oils . ( using the Gino Poppe way ) ans the colors he described in hes article . ( you can find that on the missing links )

hope i helped out..
