Terrain & Tree, attempts...

You know how it is, you went to the cellar, searching something and than you found a box with forgotten items. Yesterday I found this little landscape and a tree I started one or two years ago? I don`t know. But I think they are worth to go on.








The terrain was made of Styropor, covered with woodfiller. I tried to make a corn field just befor harvesting by using the bristles of a brush. I think because this was a lot of stupid work I stopped and forgot it ;-)



The "Tree" was made of a small branch. Then I covered it with cotton wool (?) I don´t know the right translation but it was no cotton wool but something I normally use in my aquarium filter. It is a kind of synthetical wool. After spraying it green I covered it with diluted woodglue and scattered some flocks on it. Because the base was so ugly I stopped it that time.

I think I give them a second try....

German Infantry, Seated, Preiser, 1:72

O.k. nothing spectacular today. Just the seated Germans I also finished last weekend.

British Infantry, Caesar, 1:72

Finally I finished this lot of British Infantry by Caesar. My favorite british Figures. Panited as usual by using Vallejo and Revell Colours. Next Project: U.S. Rangers from Pegasus.

Have a nice and successful week!





EDIT: UPS, something wrong with the pictures?!? I can`t fix it yet and will do it tonight. Pleas click on them, than you can see it better! Sorry for that, mates!

Edit II: Fixed!

To be or not to be...., Reworked Germans, Preiser, 1:72

I just reworked these two Minis I painted 3 years befor. After making the pictures "Hamlet" springs in my mind...







The last two picture show the figur befor inking it. Unfortunately I have no picture of the second one for a "before and after" comparison.

Both figures are from Preiser.

British Infantry for a Jeep, Halftrack...1:76, SHQ

Today just a few pictures of my just finished SHQ-Minis.

And I found out that since yesterday I´ve got 20.000 visitors on this blog. Thanks for watching, mates!

Again Germans....1:72

I continued the work on these Germans. Almost finished. I think I have to rework the right officer, perhabs another light drybrush (and the cap isn`t finished yet). We will see.

That´s new! Officers at work! (I think the right one is polishing the lamp ;-)

British Infantry, Caesar, 1:72

I made a little progress with these british Minis. The first four (on the right side of the first picture, still wet from washing...) are finished and the rest is almost ready for a wash. Hope to end this project until weekend.
Sorry for the pictures, they are a little bit dark.
