Bring Ammo!

razorboy · 29-04-2008, 01:13 AM

I put this small vignette together yesterday in about 6 hours. The Gebirgsjager figure is from the old Heller 1:35 scale MG Troops Kit. The wheelbarrow is completely scratchbuilt from balsa wood. The carriage bolt heads are drops of white glue(works for rivet heads as well). I know that the blue is a bit loud but Iwanted something to offset the blandness of the earth tones in the rest of the vignette.
Besides, you won't forget a wheelbarrow of that shade for quite a while!

Brilliant mate. I like the wheel barrow. Really good.

The wheelbarrow's lovely.
Real skill in scratchbuilding even the apparently simple form, that'd take me days and it'd still look a complete mess.
