krow113 Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) Thanks G ! .50 guy gets his due , he's a little aggressive and was made for the other side of the supplied stowage , but we make it work. I pinned the weapons body and carved out the handles and his left hand to fit. I think I got it pretty good: A walk on the beach examining the tide lines , I found some organic material for the beach detail: ...and who could resist: Edited September 6, 2018 by krow113 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krow113 Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 (edited) Thanks Francis. Looking at pics and film of Iwo Jima there is little on the beach except for different sized lava , from sand to fist sized rocks. I have a lot of black and grey dio materials stocked up so it should be fun! I have some of the organic material on hand anyway... Lots of smallish stuff getting done , armament , stowage all getting attention on the main chassis: Rope still in unfinished state: Going full circle from model to figs to stowage to basework here is the base with some work: Detail: Materials: Now the fun will really start with the final fitments of the components. Thanks for looking in! Edited September 6, 2018 by krow113 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krow113 Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) Finishing up the inside of the vehicle , moving towards mounting on the base , includes convenient placement of some crates and introduction of some players. The driver or lookout , BAR guy , and .50 guy all get mounted, .50 guys head will be installed later: I can already se movement and action being installed in the piece , a really good sign at this point. Head on: Edited September 8, 2018 by krow113 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krow113 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Kept going today , mostly forward momentum, but a few re-do's almost through this part. After I get the chassis sorted I can mount it on the base and get the rest of the figs in place. Lots of small additions: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris B Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Nicely done, with the base it be even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krow113 Posted September 11, 2018 Author Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) Thanks Kris. And I was waiting for the first plonking to reply to your post. Plonked: Cheesy first attempt water with gel and debris, working on it... And 7 more figs to populate. And what looks like incredibly realistic and vast tracts of Iwo beach isn't really: Thinking about this for literally years makes fig placement easy and quick: Flamethrower guy is the last fig, he goes in the empty spot up front.
