I like the interior crews as well, but I'm wondering how much of them is visible once the model is closed up? As for the fit, I'm pretty sure the sculptors design their figures to fit the actual model. I just wish Stalingrad commented for which particular kit these were made. Mario

Thank you for your response Alex. As the RFM model has a clear roof, I'm sure there are a lot of possibilities with the figures. Mario

If you look at all the views whilst they do look different they appear to actually be more lifelike in their "real world" proportions. I find many of the figure companies whilst beautifully sculpted in detail and finish, tend to look uniform in physical build and proportions, whilst in the real world we are all different sizes and shapes. As for the faces, I think a lot is down to painting and see nothing abnormal in their actual sculptured features.

I'm just happy that someone went through the trouble to offer us such specialized figures and while some might question proportions and faces it is surprising how little of this you can actually see once you load the ammo racks on these cumbersome beasts, clear panel or not. I have had the privledge to crawl around the Sturmtiger at Sinsheim years ago and while the Sturntigers seem absolutely cavernous when empty, load the racks and stuff five crew in and it isn't any more. Cozy wouldn't be the word that comes to mind...
