This awesome kit needs awesome riders ! Great start.

What theatre are we talking ? I'd love to see a DAK pair or eastern front but totally gratefull for any !

Make a nice combo with Mike Goods beauty's ; )

Carlos

Andy

Wow cannot wait ! great choice. ; )

My Tasca Beemer like many out there sits half finished waiting for figures and figure related gear for the bike.

AC and Mike Good to the rescue ! : )

Maybe an accessory set will follow ? !! ; )

Carl

I might have missed something but what is Mike doing,is he making riders too?
Andy

Nice idea, Andy. I will follow with intererest.

Cheers

Hello All,
Most of the Hauptmann is finished,with the string on the tarnjacke to do.Next thing to do is the map the Officer is reading.comments welcome.

Hello Andy, Very nice progress on the motorcycle duo. The Officer figure is outstanding! Will the driver also wear a camo smock? Any plans for perhaps a third rider? I don't recall ever seeing Waffen SS Motorcycle riders in this scale, or larger before. It definitely fills a void. Look forward to seeing more of your excellent sculpting. Regards, SG

Very natural looking,looks very nice ! What's the rider wearing ?

Mike Goods figures are both standing wearing Kradmantel.

Carlos

Nice pose!

This will be a excellent set for the WW II market.

Marc

Thanks for the comments guys.The pair are intended as Wehrmacht that being the tarnjacke would be apinted in splinter form.But the modeller is most welcome to remodel the insignia if they wish.
Cheers

Hi Andy,

Your riders look great.
Since you asked... yes, you did miss something. Mike sculpted a set for me (Model Cellar) that we released in November right after the kit came out. They were actually sculpted BEFORE the kit came out - hence the standing position since we did not have the kit in hand. He is also working on a seated pair for me which we will release in the future.



Keep up the great work. I Love your WWI stuff, and your Civil War busts are really cool too!
regards,
Paul

Hello All,
The rider is now almost finished with the back and front of the tunic to do.The map held by the Officer has also been added.comments welcome.
Andy

Hello Andy, Great looking rider! I like the way the goggles look on his forehead, without any headgear. Will there be any additional equipment, or gear, to mount/stow on the Motorcycle? I look forward to seeing more of this excellent set you have created. Regards, SG

Thanks for the comments guys,There will be be some new leather saddle bags and a covered headlight to add to the kit also.
Cheers
Andy
