Airfix 1:32 WW2 "German Paratroopers"


         One of the sets I made it to paint some weeks ago is these figures from the classic Airfix issue of  "German Paratroopers" 1:32 scale .Unfortunately not the full set (once again!). It was a commission painting so I 'll try to paint again this (full poses) set for my collection within this year.
    





 I tried to paint them in the MB or the  Airfix Box motive of Splinter camo and I'm not 100% happy with the result and the fine details. 
  Although I'm quite happy with the overall finished figures and I enjoy a lot painting them :)

 













          I tried hard to find photos of the radio that the Operator figure has, but I couldn't identify it.
If anyone has any clue of model or type , it would be critical for my next set. I would like to add some more realistic details to it.

Some more pictures here to enjoy and some close ups of the figures.











 That's all for now :) Hope you like it and Inspired you somehow!

'Till next time....

(late..) Happy New Year!!

       Three weeks have past since New Years Eve but its never too late to wish you a happy and creative new year!! May 2020 be a great year to all of you!!

       Every new year I start with great expectations and ambitions but I'm getting wrong! So I wont promise anything for this year's plans because it has been proved that I cannot keep any schedule in my painting time...
        Although I manage to paint a lot of figures since my last post (when was that ??) and I hope I will be able to present them to you in the forthcoming weeks...

       Today I will proudly present you my new painting station / workspace witch I manage to rearrange last summer :)
       It was a great breakthrough cause I was studying for long since I found the time to do it. The whole room was changed in to a office/workspace for me but also for the rest of the family. So now I have my painting corner/nest as I was dreamt of ...:) The whole system with the monitor is handmade by me and I enjoyed very much doing it.

      See the pictures below and I hope this post will be an inspiration to someone who wants to have computer space and a painting workspace in one!!
       








    That's all for now. My best wishes again to you and your families for the New Year!!

'Till next time....Keep Up The Brushes!!
