Great looking figure Palo

And this is the weapon:

A "pistolet-pulemjot Sudajewa obrasza 1943 goda" (PPs 43) submachine gun...:




It's a brilliant sculpt!




I'm totally excited!




And - sure - there will be an sbs here!

Cheers

And with PPS 43 . No commercial , only one piece. It is a great pity !!!!!!!

Not "any" weapon but an absolutely accurate and super detailed miniature copy of the original!









Palo, you really can it!!!




This is the socle that I bought for him at Kulmbach ...:




And as a decoration comes in front a Soviet medal ribbon (then for the "Order of Glory") and a miniature edition of the "Order of the Great Patriotic War 1st Class", which I had in my fundus ...:






Cheers

I really like to get packages like this!










The detail sharpness is simply fantastic!













The piggy..:








The little parts...:






The PPs 43...:






All together - provisionally...:




Thanks Palo - you did a brilliant job!!!


Cheers

WOW superb work

Fantastic work Offo on a really interesting subject. As Nap says, the SBS is going to be really interesting and can’t wait to see what you’ve got planned Martin to texture the pig skin.

Great and funny work, well done.

The Eindhoven show gave me the last motivation boost to turn me on to my figure project again!

So let's get started!

I have decided to start with the pig, which I have christened "Schnitzel"...:





"Schnitzel" begins his career with a cleansing bath in the ultrasonic machine, which gently removes fats and other residues...:



While the machine is doing its job, I have time to take a closer look at such a piglet:

At first glance, they look naked and rosy - but they are not! Just a few days after birth, the rosy skin is almost completely covered with bristles, which play much more ocher in color than the skin itself...:



Completely hairless are only the "outlet" and parts of the ears inside...:



I want to make these bristles today - which is a case for Jo Sonja's texture paste!

"Schnitzel" is first attached to a cork with double-sided adhesive tape ...



... and then with the texture paste and different brushes the coat of the little one is sculpted ...



... whereby I make sure to follow the "stroke" of the original and do not forget the "vertex" on the back ...:







And a special feature at the end:

Many piglets have extra long bristles on the bridge of the nose right up to the ears, a kind of "tuft" ...:







Such a tuft "Schnitzel" also gets...:





The first steps are gone...


Cheers
