    Hi guys,my latest works.The Tamiya Schwimmwagen with Aber etch,resin a/market wheels/tyres,lots of home brew bits and Evolutions Schwimmy crew by Sergey which are awesome !! Sergey if you read this please more Vehicle specific crew :) Also an old Figure by Bodi with an Alpine head and detailing to finnish.

    The crew received some tweeks so as they interact with each other ie clothing on clothing and also where parts touch the body of the Schwimmy such as arms and the figures hoods on the grab bar in the back etc... spent alot of time doing that with Magicsculpt and Greenstuff.

    The detailing is underway and still lots to add yet on the Schwimmwagen.

    This will be a tight vignette with just the three figures... and you guessed it set in the Eastern front theatre :sleep: Kharkov ! no panzerfausts (y)

    The driver will be looking down at a map so slightly different to box art.

    Really looking forward to Evolutions new MG team in Kharkov parkas to be released soon

    Excellent Carlos!

    The posing is spot on, I like the driver reading the map. As you said keep it tight with 3 figures, don't be tempted to add more figures even though the mg team are fantastic.

    Looking forward to seeing this painted up.

    Cheers,
    Jon.
