Paul, the figure looks great! I like how the tread is molded on the bottom of the boot. Pose is perfect on the vehicle.

Guy, Ian, muchly appreciated chaps . The figure is bloody amazing, it was as if it was made to sit on this tank. Unfortunately I couldn't save all the hobnail details as there was a moulding block attached to the boot  . But maybe some careful painting can reproduce the missing studs  |

It will be really easy and a lot of fun to paint that figure Paul.

Moin moin, der Alte Hase looks great. Always good to have a figure going together with a model. Gives a sense of scale. Love the details on the chap.

Wouts, Joe, thank you kindly chaps . Wouts der alte Hase looked to good to be true when I saw it online, he also fits the vehicle perfickly . This afternoon, after finishing kitchen duties (cooking dinner and washing up ), I got back at the tarp and the alte Hase . The tarp and the crewman are going to need a matt coat, but that'll have to wait until the oils and acrylics are fully dry.     Not too sure about the beret yet might go back and repaint that. The highlights on the uniform, which are very high at the mo, were painted with Vallejo Highlight German Uniform Black. For the rosa piping on the uniform I used Abt.190 Faded Flesh, that still needs touching up a tad |

The tarp looks masterclass and the head entirely ditto, you're mastering the figure painting my friend.

I have really no idea as to why Pink was used.

Beautiful work so far, although I ave to say that crewman looks like he's posing for a porno painting. Or he's leering at a beautiful woman as if he had bad intentions for her.
Okay, I blame all that on my meds. They have stopped working so my mind is really out there when I'm not depressed.....
