    This is something i started on in June with the sculpting of the three figures.
    I decided to go for a urban theme for the figures with the building of the factory ruin and also for a winter atmophere with frost instead of snow to achieve this, for this purpose i used stretched clear spue for the icicles and silver glitter glue for the frost effect.
    All painted with acrylics except for some oil washes on the concrete and the tankers leather jacket.

    All comments and critique welcomed,

    You have certainly captured the cold Steve. What are they stood on, a pumping station?

    Makes me cold just looking at it, the wood grain on the K98 stock is also extreamly well done.

    Excellent work.
    The cold atmosphere is wonderful.
    I think it's unique and is an original vignette.
    I liked it very much.
    I congratulate completion.

    thanks all for the comments on the work.

    @ carl.... as for pumping station it is a totally ficticious setting made totally from my imagination but i do like your thoughts on it being a pumping station,fits well with the scene.

    thanks

    Steve,
    Excellent looking cold scene with the three figures!
    Very well sculpted and painted. For my feeling the figures could use a bit more shadow.
    But this depends also on the light setup.

    Looking forward to your next!
    Take care,
    Marcel.

    Marcel..many thanks for the comments mate, the shadows are not really showing well as the pictures didnt come out as good as usual,a lot of the weathering on the white trousers are not showing either, appreciate your input mate.

    Ray..glad to know i pulled it off with the cold effect, thanks.
