fallschirmjagers- Ardennes 1945

Posted by yeti0010 on Sunday, September 2, 2007 10:41 AM

I decided to take a break from my usual Luftwaffe planes. The figures are Dragons 1/35 3rd fallschirmjager divison, the groundwork is woodland senics railroad ballast covered with baking soda, the fence was made out of match sticks. It was a very enjoyable and cheap project that has inspierd me to try my hand at armor.

Yeti,

Overall, I like the ground work and how you placed your figures. Can't really see much detail due to blurr and dark lighting of your photos. I think for your first figure project, it came out quite nicely and would be even better if you added some detail to faces (skin tones, eyes.....). I have difficulty painting figures and I really need a professional help or something.

You're off to a good start here. If you enjoyed that, you should keep going. Research sites that go into detail about painting flesh tones, and try another dio.

Nice work here.
