Airfix - German Infantry - Last part

      Finally,  I 've made it to finish this set and present it as the last post in 2015, as I 've planned !!
As my wife was cooking the whole afternoon(!) and I was playing with my daughter, I manage to steal some time to take these photos in order to make this post. 

     These are the last three figures and also you can see here some photos of the full project. I've made a small vignette to display the two lying figures,as they come without base.I hope you like the muddy terrain for the base because I haven't use any great technique for the mud. It just look very...dry.....

  

      I wish you all a Happy New Years Eve and may 2016 find us all productive and creative in our hobby!!

                The base on progress...

......and just like that, one more year passes on, and life goes on and on and on .........

 Happy 2016!!

Airfix - German Infantry ,1:32 scale ,Figures 1-5

       I haven't realise how much time has passed since my last post...All this time my painting has left behind,
so,I can enjoy the growing up of my daughter!!

      Although ,I've manage to paint some figures and make some constructions but , this is the first time that
I have some time to update my blog. So, I've spend some time to take nice pictures and make a follow-up
with this issue.The figures are painted sometime during summer.I have three incomplete figures to finish this
set but I don't know when this will happen....

      Not many words are needed for these figures as we all know them very well! I hope you'll enjoy my work and I will be happy to read and answer to any comment!!

....My favorite one............

Airfix - German Infantry Fig.1

       A long time a go, in my mind, I had a plan.  Since my painting skill reach an acceptable (...by me) level,

I wanted to paint again all the ,1:32 ,Airfix and Matchbox figures of WW2 period (..and then the other issues also..) for my collection. I will try to achieve the best historical accuracy for the insignia and uniform colors and of course, every comment or correction is accepted and welcomed!

      Unfortunately, due to lack of time , I can no logger have mass paintings so this project will be completed

figure by figure. Also, this project will go on along the other projects I'm currently running so it will be a long time procedure.

      I've started this long journey with a group of Airfix figures that are the most common and famous among

the Airfix issues. Of course is the "German Infantry" set .

   
     To begin with this set I 've chosen the Officer figure. The insignia is for a German "Field Captain" .
     To paint these figures I will use the uniform colours from the Early WW2 years. I got a lot of help by
Osprey "Men at War 16" and "Men at Arms 311" magazines that are trusted and detailed enough in colors
and in equipment also.A lot of pictures found in several sites completed the vital information.

    Enjoy the pictures below from different sides of the figure.

 Below you can see one photo of German officers in Paris at 1940.
