WIP 13th SS Division Handschar (1st Croatian)

I don;t think I’d use the big black flag, Other than that i Love this dio. The figs are outstanding, the groundwork and composition are great. And an unusual subject,too! Good job!

~Jerry

Lets just say the echoes of their actions linger thru to this day in that part of the world… very long memories there. Very nice work though, your smocks look espcially good, as does your groundwork. That is what it looks like there.

Well, the black flag is just as contraversial as puting the swastika or the SS decals. It has been discussed here somewhere, you know, historical accuracy vs. political correctnes vs good/bad taste etc.

Thanks for comments , well black flag will stay on this dio but not on top of haystack… I will put it on frame of a diorama … like some sort of title… position on top of haystack is strategicaly wrong because it could be used to direct fire from oposite side… hope you can inderstand what I mean…

sorry for my bad english…

cheers

I completely agree with you about the black flag–I don’t think any division–SS or otherwise–would call out their location in such a way.

As far as it being controversial or political, I don’t see it that way. It’s History.

HEHEE,made me [:)][:D] I for one would want a more(useful,intimidating,protective,less goofy) head covering when going into battle, or just leaving the house.

The figures looked great once they hit the groundwork(nice realistic looking groundwork) I like the feel and mood in the dio.

Doog : interesting factoids —I guess forced to wear that hat you’d act evil too

Attempt to made corn plant as addition to dio…


Sorta corny, but I like it…how’d you do it?

Aluminium foil… well as I said it’s first attempt… second is on the way… this weekend I try to take some pictures of real stuff…

Hey, cool corn, I like it!

Thanks, Jim

New corn added… and few new details… partisans cap still to come lie on ground … and no more details… except figures of course…

Cheers

Your diorama keeps to look better and better everytime you post updates! [tup] Looking forward to see it completed. Just a suggestion… use the heat to flatten the boots laying on the ground at its top… we don’t see them laying that round unless they are ski boots. Hope you understand what I am trying to say.

Keep 'em coming… I saw few great pictures of SS Div Handschar in a book recently and it reminded me of your work.

…or if there are feet still in 'em…

Thanks for tip , I almost missed that…

and there is no feet in them [:D]

LOL! [(-D] At least we won’t see the boots being curled like in the scene from the Wizard of Oz when the Wicked Witch of East was killed after the house landed on her!

Nice job and original idea[tup]

This is the end… thanks to everyone who posts their comments and advices in past months…

Cheers

It looks great, I love it. The partisan hat on the ground is a nice detail.

Pozdrav, super je…[:)]
