Again beautiful work Carl. I have a question regarding the Tamiya flat base. Are you airbrushing it over the Vallejo? I wouldn't have thought you could add it to your Vallejo paints and airbrush the mix.

Thanks

Gary

Brilliant painting Carl and certainly one of your best to date.

Cheers Ken

I add my voice to this concert of praise; I must say your job on the coat is a true source of inspiration. I've noticed in your comments that you did apply preliminary highlights with the airbrush, and I was wondering what was the scale of the figure; is this a 54mm?

Oh, ok, probably a bit more easier to treat with an airbrush than a 54mm; I notice this because I've tried once to do some highlight job with the airbrush on a 1/35 figure to save un-necessary brush strokes, and the result was disastrous )

Hi Carl!

Back when I was a student I read Hugh Trevor-Ropers book 'The Last Days of Hitler'. It inspired me to do a few oil paintings. I think Andrea's figure is meant to be in the same time frame....ie at the end...the presentation of iron crosses to war orphans...

..ok I'm not Ric Scollins...but I enjoyed paintin' 'em!

Jon - you may not be Rick Scollins but you are certainly a very gifted artist. Fascinatng paintings very well rendered from what I can tell. The best part is the imagination shown.

The Hitler figure looks like he just stepped out of "Downfall." Great paint job and a good sculpt. Even if you aren't a Hitler fan you can enjoy this figure knowing that in a day or two he will be pulling down the curtain.
