    Hi All

    Thought I would post this in here (can also be seen on VBench) I have converted the figures below to suit my next Dio which is a downed ME 109 pilot being rescued! Just need to add the tap and pipe to the life jacket.

    Any comments are appreciated:-

    Hi David,
    The pair look good.My only comment is the left pocket being raised on the firstaider where by the leg of the pilot.It looks a little too much.
    The whole thing looke pretty good though.
    Cheers

    Hi Andy

    Thanks for the comments.I agree, it is something that caught me in a dilemma, should I have the pilot stretching the material down or forcing it up? I decided to have it forced up but is difficult to replicate,however I'm quite pleased with the overall effect, still new to this so along way to go. The dynamic pose is imply superb and as stated I will get the pics to you in respect of the slippage.

    Thanks again.

    Even if you altered the pocket I dont think it would detract from the overall look.
