Smile Ohh noo not Wittmannīs Tiger again!

Hi all!
Sorry for my absence. At saturday I ordered one Tiger 1 Late made by Dragon after thinking how I could display it. I looked in both TIC2, Agte Michael Wittmann vol 2 and Michael Tammelander and Nicklas Zetterlings book about D-day. One idea that sprung into my mind was to depict the Tiger during the return for more ammunition after the first attack. I wanted to display the feeling of happieness in their faces so I started with the figures. I know this takes more time to make than the tank it self. At the local "hobby" dealer I bought some FIMO modelling material and found one Hornet head I could use.
Well I got no good camera and I guess itīs both me and the camera to blame for the bad pictures. In tandem with the Wittmann crew for the tank 222 I make other figures for other project as well. By the way the Hornet head got the dubble buttons so I had to change it into the singel button that you can see on pictures of the man it self.

After looking at A.Rudinīs WB I bought some Fimo materials for both figures and zimmerit.

The head from Hornet. Original itīs Heers head so I must change it to SS.

With the aid of Lion Roar I can now make the head look more appropriat.

After baking the figures it is now time for shape them and give them some uniforms.

Regards
Ebbe
