Hi Figureteers!

My main World Expo contribution became completed yesterday.
Heres the pictures for you that wont be there and a teaser for those of you who will.

Its a shadowbox with the theme from WWII, Arnhem and the breakout attempt of Major Digby Tatah-Warter of the British Airborne(aka Red Devils). Although some artistic license has been taken.

Figures are from the Cromwell set but heavily reworked and detailed using head and hands from other makers. The rest is more or less scratchbuilt.

Hope to see a lot of you in boston.

The first three shots are showing the scene without its final lighting.









The next two ones are with the lights provided in the box.







And finally heres the box with its frame and title:
"Symphaty for the Devils.."
Sorry for the bad picture but it was hard to shoot cause the reflexes.



Cheers

Janne - Superb a lovely scene of the brits at arnhem.

Ross

WOW............excellent scene Janne. You have done a superb job with your scene.....figures.........setting...........lighting.......everything.

There is a reason that I'm not exhibiting at WE this weekend, and pieces like that is it. That is masterful.

Thanks fellow Figureteers for your kind comments and support.

The figures are from a Cromwell set, but heads and hands are from Hornet, Resicast and some of my own sculpting. Equipment and weapons are mostly Tamiya and some Dragon. Rest is scratch, mainly plastic card and some of the flowers are photoetched. Curtains are Magic Sculpt.

Id always like to have something to exhibit at a show. Its so easier to socialize and make friends.

I will also bring three figures as well.

Cheers

hi Janne
sorry it's an old thread, but i dreamed or i saw this splendid dio on pics of Folkstone this year no ?
Have you more pics for a fan ?

Seb.

Sure have. And yes, it went to EuroMilitaire thanks to Quang and other Figureteers. Thanks for that by the way.

I actually have a lot of WIP pictures and Ive made a Powerpoint presentation, hows your swedish?

E-mail me and I can email the pictures or perhaps burn a CD for you.

Janne,

I remember that one, really nice! I wish I could do one of those myself! Great job and I would love to see more pictures myself.
