Can’t be bothered with anything serious after my recent diorama. So sunflowers and Tamiya German infantry on maneuvers. 9 figures for this but maybe not use them all!!!! Prepped the figures with black primer. Sprayed from the top with white and now painted the base colour using MiG ammo field grey.

Thanks armorguy and bwilt. Yes, I think you can see where I am going with this.  The bunker is Verlinden and supposed to be for 1/35!!!!! Bought and used the out house a long time ago. Time to give it a fresh outlook.

Thanks Paul, Steve and bwilt. To prevent tears before bed time, I just came up with this idea. Mask a bit of wire to the barrels to prevent them being bent and or broken.  It should work!!!!

Good idea Tommy  . But wouldn't it be better to paint the weapons separately?

Thanks Paul.
Yes, but not always possible, though.

Thanks armorguy and PorcoRosso.
Truth is though, the figures were built and field greened last week.
