Got to love these little vignettes for all the possibilities they bring to the table. That and the fact that they don't require you to do major surgery on a 'donor' kit to produce them!

This one looks like it would be perfect to blend in to the outer corner of an urban-setting dio.

Hi, the next step. First Vallejo black primer, after this i paint the wedgie with airbrush and vallejo colors. Then i paint the details with the brush. After a thin layer with clear coat and a pinwash with MIG dark wash, i faded the base with oilcolors. Then I took care of the back-story. The Ardennes, in Dec. 44, the 6th Panzer Division and the representation of snow. That was the idea. I made the snow with products from Deluxe Materials. After I had made even the base by myself, I painted the figure. This Oakleaf camouflage was very difficult to paint.

I can see why that camo would be a challenge, very nice execution! Snow looks the part as well on the wreck.

Small, but most impressive work! Where can you lasercut those badges (in Germany)?
Thanks in advance!
Lucas.
