88 Flak 36 (OOB)

[lucatolo]

Hi guys,

posting some photos of my just finished Dragon 88 Flak 36.

Since I build it SOOB, I'm just posting the almost finished little dio: a Totenkopf's 'winter 42/43' unit, and not the WIP I did...

Very nice work. The groundwork looks great and the white camo is excellent. Fine job.

Looks very nice! I wish I had space to make a diorama.

In the third photo, it looks like the 88mm is pointed right at the guy's head! :lol:

Very nice. The paint job on the winter cammo uniforms looks really nice!

Hi guys,

thanks to all for the nice words!! :)

Painting the winter parkas has been really a "pain in the a...."
Of the four figures planned, after three days spend painting the white uniforms, I decided to use only two...!!!

:o Hey Luca,
great looking little scene. The shells on the tarp and the figure leaning over are a great touch. the winter cam on the 88 looks spot on.
I love the color of your exposed ground against the white of the snow........nice choice to offset the white and help the grey to look less of a contrast.
Nice size base too.

Hello Ian,

Really thanks! Said by you who are a Super Diorama Builder, it is really appreciated!

I took the idea of the exposed terrain from your 'Tiger I initial' dio ;)

Luca

BTW, I was looking for your 'Fallschirmjager's Pak 40 Anzio' dio, but I couldn't find it! Is it here or did I see it at Missing-lynx?

[brokeneagle]

Luca,
the Pak 40 Anzio dio is kind of here......... i have never posted it in full on my bench but there is a step by step on painting bases in FINISHING under GENERAL that I did on building the base for that one. I should post the whole thing at some stage I suppose but this has a few overall finished shots. The SBS might be of use to you as well? :)
Keep up the great modelling!

Ian,

Thanks for addressing me to your PAK 40!..I just bought one and wanted to 'steal' some hints from yours which I remembered a great model as your 'usual standards'... :)

Cheers,

Luca
