I love it! But I do feel sorry for the next user of that outhouse. Looks like Fritz had the aim of an Imperial Stormtrooper on the throne.

Steve, you have some astonishing skills. Your figure painting is fantastic and makes your subject incredibly realistic. You certainly have a keen eye for detail and a touch to make them real. I applaud your creativity in your diorama. Very clever and incredibly executed.

Steve, simply excellent work, bravo good sir!
I may be biased, but I would think this could compete at the top levels of the hobby. I can't imagine anything nicer than this.

Finally finished another work of art you definitely take figures to the next level !! Thanks, Tony!!! I love it! But I do feel sorry for the next user of that outhouse. Looks like Fritz had the aim of an Imperial Stormtrooper on the throne. It reminds me of the outhouses when responding to Katrina in '05, nasty, HA! Thanks, Stik. Steve, you have some astonishing skills. Your figure painting is fantastic and makes your subject incredibly realistic. You certainly have a keen eye for detail and a touch to make them real. I applaud your creativity in your diorama. Very clever and incredibly executed. Thank you, Joe. I always try to tell a story if possible, makes it much more fun, or "funner", lol. Steve, simply excellent work, bravo good sir! I may be biased, but I would think this could compete at the top levels of the hobby. I can't imagine anything nicer than this. Thanks, Brian, I greatly appreciate those kind words. Thanks, Jeaton! |

I don't even know where to start here. 1.The theme.....what a HOOT!! 2. The diorama base....  3. The figures......  4. The Kettenkrad and associated details....Good LORD man!!! This is the level of building that I'd like to be at one day. The trick with the wine bottles was certainly a neat trick to learn along the way on this build. A million thanks for sharing your work, techniques and finished product with us Steve. This is a true show piece. |

Sorry for the delayed response Gents, it's been an incredibly busy last few days.
Glad yall enjoyed the presentation. A difficult subject to present without crossing the "line", but IPMS would probably nix this at the door. I really don't care, HA!
Thanks, Gents!

Another phenomenal masterpiece Steve! I'm sorry for the late reply myself; it's been crazy busy for me lately as well. No time for anything!
IPMS would allow that in as there is no graphic imagery if you know what I mean. If they had opened the door with him sitting on the hole with his junk hanging out...then it would be stopped at the door so to speak.
No matter what; it is still an outstanding work of art with a hilarious story!

Truly spectacular work on every level, Steve, from the figures, the base, the scratched details, to the overall finish is a sight to behold. Just incredible!
