A friend of mine have a German Soldbuch and a photo of the soldier named Paul Pellens and he wanted a figure representing him. I found a figure from Alpine Miniatures that would fit and went to work. I had to scrape off some details from the very nicely sculpted figure before I could glue it together and splash some paint on it. The tunic and breeches needed to be painted in the Pea pattern camo which is a bit difficult but I am fairly pleased with the result. The figure comes with two optional heads, one with field cap and the other with a helmet. I chose the field cap as I think it looked better for this project. I fixed the completed figure to a wooden plinth and made my Girlfriend ,who is quite skilled , to make the grave marker which I fitted to the front of the base.
Now the workbench is cleared, but that won`t last long coz I have ideas for a few new little scenes:)
