Airfix 1:32 German Afrika "Corpse" - Zombie Soldier (!)

      Hi everyone! First post for 2021 and a Late " Happy New Year " .A Healthy and a creative year!

     Taking part on this years "Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge" my blog passes to a second place for posting. Of course some of my entries there will be posted here also.

 

     For this post I have a small conversion for you! This figure comes to me broken in this awkward ankle and the idea for a " Zombie-Sceleton" soldier comes in my mind easily when I needed "something that comes back to life" on a topic of the challenge:) . A small re-sculpting on the face and some extra damage on the clothes and my Zombie comes to life!!

 

   Next plan is to make an Army full of these! A splatter " Afrika Corpse " unit!!

 

 

 That's all for now! How you like my little Afrika "Corpse" figure :)

'Till next time...

Airfix Handmade Display Vignette 1:32

        Hello everyone! Covid restrictions continuing and we are in a general Lockdown again... I hope you are all healthy and safe. More patience we mast have and I hope ,all this will come to an end soon... 

       Back to my painting projects and again in my 1:32 WW2 favourite era. I made this small vignette for a friend before some weeks , and then, I thought why not, to put it on my shops as a custom order vignette for collectors or as a gift.

  

I've chosen the 4 most significant forces  of WW2 . So from left to right we have : 

US. Infantry , British Commando , Russian Infantry and of course German Infantry man.

 Also chosen action and shooting figures , rather than standing or running to give more power to the visual result. I'm thinking now for one display with the Officers of these sets. It would also be nice :)

      Many pictures below during the procedure and of course the final result in every angle :)

 

  That's all for today. I hope you like this small display and my post would be an inspiration to someone out there. Of course you can find this as a custom order on my shops :)

'till next time..thanks for watching,

Stay safe and healthy !

and of course...

Britains Deetail " U.S. Infantry Officer" 1:32 , 54mm, repainted

       Hi everyone!  While I'm working on a commission painting for a "AWI British grenadiers" project, I would like to share here a figure painted some months a go. This is a 1971 classic Britains Deetail figure that I decided to repaint. 

   

       These classic figures where painted in a simple way with fancy colors and most of the times they lose their nice details of the sculpt. I will try to paint more of them when I find the time.

    

      Hope you enjoy the pictures below! Feel free to comment and share your opinion about the painting or your experience with those lovely figures..

That's all for now! A small post for a newly repainted happy guy !!

Hope you enjoy and get inspired somehow..

     Happy return to everyone ! My best wishes for a new happy and productive season!
As stated in a previous post, I took some figures with me in the camp site (happy me!). One of the sets I manage to finish. The other one needs some work to do...

     So here are my second try for Airfix " WW2 British Paratroopers" in 54mm scale. I did one more back in 2018 and you can find it also somewhere here :)  Not many differences but brighter colours for the cammo and berets.
    

     Hope you like it and enjoy many pictures below..

    ... and of course , some in white backround.... for the fans of it. :)

    

Thanks for watching and hope it would be an inspiration to someone !!
