Dutch soldier just falling through the ice

About the helmet : I made the figure 20 years ago but is was badly painted. I removed all the paint and started again.. so I can't remember if I did something special with the helmet :(

Thanks for the comments on the setup. Its true, you cannot see easily his facial expression (he is trying to do his best to get on land), ... mmm.. perhaps I should turn him 45 degrees clockwise , that might improve things !

Very nice work, Johan - the only thing that strikes me is that with the trees so close to him, it's hard to see any facial expression he might have (panic?).  I understand that he's very close to land, but still, it will be hard for anyone seeing it in person to see the front of the figure.  There's nothing wrong with the layout - it's just that the nature of the scenario makes it hard to see him.  But two thumbs up for the quality of work and the originality of the scene!

Intresting subject, typical dutch (because of the Waterlinie)

The helmet sits very high on the head of the soldier, did you do that on purpose?
