German Officer - Alpine
I've always liked the looks of this figure, the slouched casual look as he saunters forwards, and I thought the long coat would provide a good opportunity to try some textured leather effects. The base is made in only 2 major pieces, hard plaster for the paving and cork tile for the textured tarmac. The newspaper was made from aluminium foil with the front taken from an image of a period newspaper I tracked down using Google. I've done a small article on the newspaper for "The Basement Webzine" but it won't be up yet. Still, it's worth checking some of the other items there http://www.tbfm.co.uk/ I'd also like to thank Adrian Bay for lending me a book on WW2 German uniforms, and all those that gave me some feedback during the work in progress. Hopefully by the time this is active I will have done a post on the forums with links to the WiP pictures and a larger image so you can see all the brush marks :) Thanks for looking All comments appreciated
