Here is the next rifle group finished. This brings me up to 4 rifle groups a gun group and a medic. Next will be a platoon HQ
Here is the missing digger from the 4th rifle group:
Rifle Group 4
28mm figure
“look behind the bamboo!”
Another Australian searching the bush for VC.
Like these figures very much. so am very happy to have quite some more to paint.
Next ANZAC warrior
Here is the next Digger. The start of my second section. He has a blonde mustache.
A door gunner for my Huey
Over a year ago I printed a Huey with my 3d resin printer. You can read more about this here. Alas I didn’t have any door gunners. Now I got a few door gunners from Empress miniatures, sculpted by Paul Hicks.
And both in the 1/50 printed Huey. I think they work really nice in an 1/50 ship but also in a 1/48 one. Have a look here
First ANZAC digger rifle section finished
Yesterday evening I finished the last missing digger for my first rifle section. Above and below you see pictures of the completed section.
I now have 3 rifle groups a MG group and a medic finished. Below is the last missing soldier. It is the same sculpt I painted the day before , so there are two identical figures in the last group. I probably switch that around .
And the finished 3rd rifle group:
Moving through the bush
The 3rd ANZAC jungle fighter is finished. Only one more to finish my first rifle section.
The last one will follow tomorrow
A M16 armed Digger
Here is the next Digger. this time armed with a M16. A very nice figure, having that late 60th early 70 feeling with the appropriate facial hair.
Start of the 3rd rifle group
Here is the first figure of the 3rd rifle group. When i finish this rifle group, hopefully until the end of this week, my first digger section will be ready for battle.
The Lambretta workshop
As I build the two Lambrettas you can see here and here, I needed something like a Lambretta workshop for my city of Hue project. So I scratch build this workshop out of extruded polystyrene , coffee stirrers and cardboard.
It will fit next to, or in between a row of houses I am building at the moment for the Hue project. More about this later. The oil drums, tires etc are 3D printed and the tin roof is made with a device from green stuff world, which turns ordinary cardboard into corrugated cardboard. The posters and signs are from the internet and printed out on paper.
Here is a picture with a Full Metall Miniature for size comparison
A blue one
Here is another Lambretta again 3D printed. This is the same model as the buff one you can see here. This one wasn’t printed correctly. The roof above the passenger compartment was partially missing. So I removed it completely and loaded the Lambretta with things to be delivered to a market. Boxes an oil drum ,fruits ( Melons). The boxes and oil drum are 3D printed too, the fruit were plastic ammo for an air gun.
Tomorrow I show you my Lambretta repair shop for my Hue city project.
