I can feel the “been outside sweating” of it to where I almost want a shower [:)]
Slack in the sling is just right, too.
The slack in the claymore bag strap is so nice.
The dogtag on the boot is a nice touch in the sculpt, although they were typically under the laces. And the muddiness is just right.
This would be an interesting pose to render as a 3d print rather than cast from a mould. Som slack in the straps could be rendered that way. That would be the only way I could see to imrpove on this build.
Est.1961 - thanks a lot! Glad you like it and good to know this thread was entertaining!
Cap’n - Thank you very much! You helped me a lot on this one and your photos on this thread will make it a valuable reference for modellers attempting similar subjects in the future.
Gamera - thanks a lot for your continued interest here! You mention a point that was a major challenge for me - I’m glad you like my results. To be true I like how it turned out too
Great work as always Pawel. The playing cards may be a bit theatrical or not. Also most grunt’s went in the field with full size packs of cigs carried in those cute little plastic slip cases.
