The Last Kiss...WIP...

We were out on a date in my daddy's car

We hadn't driven very far

There in the road, up straight ahead,

A car was stalled, the engine was dead...

Oops. wrong last kiss!

~Very, very sweet scene coming together here Herr Feldmarshel. Unique to modeling but often seen in photos, the perfect choice for a vignette(a great spot for the Traction 11) The DOG is a bit of a monster

He's a big one(maybe this time you'll hear something besides "aaaaaawwww....he's sooooo cute.....") Really  Nice painting on him.

He's heading back to the Ostfront....and she's learning russian !

Looking good so far.

Very nice Manny......covers your two favorite subjects...women and animals .

Nothing like Manny figures

Rounds Complete!!

Very cute, Manny! A cool scene, for sure. I do agree that this doog is quite huge, scale-wise. I hope he fits into the scene when all is done. The scene could survive without him, if need be.

Great looking scene. I really like the figs. Who makes them? Looking forward to seeing more of this scene.

Outstanding!  Nobody can paint female figures better than you Manny... is she a waist zero or two? 

I have to agree with Doog and others... the dog looks bigger than usual unless the lady had to adopt the biggest one from the dog pound for maximum protection from those horny Russkies?

I've had this set for a long while but didn't know what to do with it until the Tamiya car came out, which offers all kinds of dio possibilities...

ok. see i never claim to know that stuff... guess im always used to seeing the pics where the guy is leaving off to war or whatever...

Manny she needs some stocking seams....or drawn on lines if there were none available. Check out some Vargas prints for reference ;) I guess they'll always have Paris!!

 Sweet pooch

I was thinking of putting him in the back seat with his head poking out of the rolled-down window...might find another home for him though...

He 'aint heading nowhere...He's packing her back off to Berlin so he can resume his carousing at his present cushy assignment in Paris as the SS Gruppenfuher in charge of French wine procurement.  She just came down for the weekend...

He's the chap that hooked up with "Lily of the Lamp Post", ain't he Manny...

Looks to be a nice simple one. Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this one.

Can you give some info on how you are painting the officers' uniform?

~Ladies man is right!

Clever placement of the jugs.

Heh...Heh....he said jugs!

Her waist size is actually a 1...as far as the dog, maybe it isn't too out of scale after all:

I don't know--I'd say she has a date with the barber next, who'll shave the Cross of Lorraine in the side of her head for being a collaborator and sleeping with the Boche.

Nicely done figures, Herr Feldmarschall!

There are some well-done female figures at this site, too:

Aurora Models in Japan.  They tend to have a look reminiscent of anime girls, though, or perhaps somewhat like the old Phoenix Model Developments figures.  But I think they have a human touch, especially the Luftwaffe auxiliaries in her catalog.

~Yeah I know, huh? Seriously cool figures there

I've been directed to that site before, but as hard as it is to fathom 2ooo Yen, ($22.30) +shipping, for example, is a little more than I like to spend on one figure....maybe someday to get just the right girl.....
