Some of you may remember that some time ago I built a 1WW German stormtrooper based on Miniart's Ernst Udet figure:
For my next project I'm going to have a go at doing the same with their Herman Goering figure:
These aren't great kits. The rendering is a bit slapdash, with soft details and poor moulding. Witness the flash on the sprue shot:
The head is unusable as the mould line goes straight through the front of the face. I have the following Jon Smith head in my stash, and I intend to have it wearing the gas mask:
I've put the figure together, adding a belt and shoulder boards from metal foil and wire:
The equipment will be as follows:
The gun is a pre-painted one inherited from Richard Pierce, and most of the equipment came from the same source (cheers Richard). I may have the grenades suspended on a string around his neck, and he'll be holding the gun in his right hand.
