    This figure was purchased in the late 1970's, I cannot remember the Brand Name but it was a lead figure for sure. The MG 42 is from Tamiya and both are 1/35 scale. The leather gun straps were constructed of typing paper coated in a 50/50 mix of White Glue and water, then painted brown. The ground work is Celluclay tinted then covered with Woodland Scenics Products. The empy MG 42 shell casings were cut from very fine brass rod. I built this little Vignette around 1980 and have since sold it to a Collector. One of my favorite builds. DSCN0127a.jpg DSCN0128a.jpg
