Hi...before I continue with the build blog, I'd like to post up the latest the figures for this diorama. It's safe to say they're up and ready for priming but before that here's a snippet of the composition...
Actually not the final composition as I have relocated the some of the figures but its roughly like that. Basically the pose is supposed to be like this roughly...
The latest figures will be shown in before and after configuration:
Before, the Panzer Grenadier and spare hands.
After, basically he has a new head from Hornet, reworked hald of a
Tamiya back pack...
The spade is typical marine tropical style.
Next
Before, standing figure ready to baynet charge.
After, added resin head turned to the right, readjusted arms and hands and made him kneel.
Next
Before, flame thrower man.
After, repositioned his legs, Hornet head, and added the other half of the reworked
Tamiya back pack.
May have to redo his left hans to grip the rifle better. This is a classic pose from an Iwo Jima image.
Next
Before, shot gun man.
After, calling out to his buddy. Added Hornet head, reworked arms and change of weapon.
Next
Before, BAR Man.
After, no change...his pose is just right only drilled out the sleeve cuffs.
That was my weekend progress. Little things like the helmet straps and gun slings will be added.
C & C welcomed.
Cheers,
Richard
