"Sd.Kfz. 223 Garage Sale" - ICM 1/72
« on: March 31, 2016, 03:36:26 PM »
Hi guys

Sorry about this delay, but many things have happened. My dog died last week :icon_crap:

But since life continues I would like to share with you a small vignette I have been working on and off for quite some time.

It represents someone selling an Sdkfz 223, during the fifties, and showing it to some prospect buyers.

The kit is the ICM and the figures are resin,  from a local guys who makes them (I am not sure if he is still in business).

Please find below the photos:




















































Thanks for watching!

Sorry about your dog. :(

The dio looks great and I really like those figures: all sorts of things you could do with them.

Hi folks

Sorry about all this delay.
Things have been a little bit busy around here, but now is back to normal (whatever normal means ;) )

In the meanwhile, the project continued.

Added a dog:



And some final details:



And finally some paint:

And the vignette is finished!

And here are the photos to prove it :)





































And then I realized that I had forgotten the wheels markings on the terrain, while the resin was fresh,
so I had to emulate them with oils.




And that's it.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers!
