The
Hole in the Fence: The
idea to this vignette originated spontaneously, actually I wanted to
test my skills in the area of the Figurenmalens once again. At the
start, it continued has come all the more I still quite well however
ever, I had to still very much determines that I in this area must
learn. It is just a long way to produce good figures and to paint, I
admire the big of the scene that here this to way brings. I will
certainly pull my teachings from this work again and will try to move
with the next.
The background 1944,
the landing of the Allied Forces in the Normandy is partially proper
bewilderment in full walk and with the German troops prevails. So my
MG2 tries his/its Einser to follow here since a fast position-change
became necessary through the surprising attacks of the Airborne. So, it
is beyond stick and stone through the debris of the antecedent
plane-attacks, once quickly the gap in the garden-tooth, in order to
reach into the new position, been of use. What he/it is not already
noticed in the eagerness of the skirmish that the first soldiers of the
Airborne into the HKL eingesickert however is. This one has used also
the protection of the fence to bring closer the German positions about
itself. In this moment, the German storms through the gap in the fence,
I like to leave the further development of the events you…
The Figures The
figures come from the sentence „German Panzerjaegers, Eastern
front 1944, “from the company Dragon and the sentence „US
Paratroopers (1944) “from the company masters box. Over the
quality, one needs not much writes, from Dragon in her/it lived good
and master-box takes second place here in no way. The assembly simply
works out and it almost admits no positions the repairs. Here, I also
find means first learning process, if the figures are built together
and are primed, they should her/it/them itself exactly under a
magnifying glass once or similar looks at all the the fine Gussgrates
to determine and to remove. In this case, I have it done not like you
with the pictures unfortunately will determine. It is admittedly small
things she/it the result however disturbs however, at least me.
The Painting Here,
I tried a new way to go and didn't prime the figures with the airbrush
separates would use the new colors of Revell, which I have served with
the brush. For the grounding, I have used the color wisely, more
normally wisely I take a yellow-sound here. After him/it dries
has painted the figures I from a mix from Enamel and Valleyo colors.
The insignias with the Airbornesoldaten be contain Decals them/her/it
in the kit. The tracks of the skirmish were served with pastel-chalks
and the Alterung as well as the washing took place with rarefied oil.
After the total was dried was sealed it with a layer Matt-lacquer.
The Diorama For
the diorama, remains were used from the Grabbelbox, so the fence as
well as the framework and ground of the Dioramas was built from
Balsaholz. The fence was painted with acrylic - and oils and in the
plaster-bed was put down. Here, I have also tried to represent a few
details like the torn off nails with a wire. The grounding of the
terrain took place was painted with Enamels with acrylic-colors and the
framework on the other hand. The shrub comes from a Centshop, is actual
thought for the Aquarienbedarf, and became misuses from me. The tree
originated from a sea-foam-branch, which was first primed in brown, on
which I have fixed the leaves with gloss from the spray bottle. For the
leaves, I have simply used gerebelten marjoram, simply in the
application and advantageous. In order to be able
to represent the movement with the GI, this was fixed with a pen, that
went through the sole, with the underground.
Equipment Like
so often has try the arms as well as the helmets no belts that I here
to adjust with a lead-foil. The foil is primed with Enamelfarbe and
then with a fine, though sharp blade is cut. And since I didn't simply
want to install the belt at the gun has built I from a thin wire the
mounting as well. That installs at the arms my super-glue became the
magic quality to a puzzle then there however has to hold there
everywhere where he/it doesn't shall like fingers etc however not on
the position where he/it shall. After some attempts, I succeeded with
it then however and I was calmed down. And since the bare fence-wall
didn't so properly want to please me has loosened up her/it/them I with
a poster also. Here is the Internet a very good medium for such
pictures, these stored and brought with a photo-program on the right
size and printed out, cuts and installs, manufactures.
Conclusion
A small vignette their construction much fun has done until on the
super-glue-insole. It shows something like one also from a few rests,
the total can do and can increase the value of ideas with a few. And me
personally that no master of the heaven fallen is and one to the
produces much practice from good figures needs.
Happy modelling
