SgtPappas Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) So, good time of day for everyone First of all sorry for my english - im still learning Afler almost a year after i'm finish my last diorama, i dtarted a new project. This time it will be another trying to recreate something special to me. The one of the greatest song of all time Metallica "One". As you maybe knows, videoclip and concerts shows totally different and have their own video. When im fist time saw this new video in "Through the never" video i thought "Thats it, this is my big one!" Ok, no more words, lets start it! Cast: Taiya's '"British Infantry On Patrol" Miniart Telegraph Poles Miniart Anti Tank Obstacles Miniart Diorama With Brick Wall Miniart German Field Gun Tamiya 2,5 tonn Cargo Truck Tamiya US Infantry Weapons Set Also there will be some additional stuff Like Magic Sculpt, Barbred Wire, Resin Sculls etc. So there is an ide to recreate soldier walking from peacefull life through the war into hell. In first part infantry will be fully painted and a part of a truck will be painted too, this will be a peacefull part, then war part will be completelly black, or, maybe, not black, but painted in Tamiya NATO Black with some lights and shades. And the last part will be in black and red colors with whire sculls on the infantry bodies. I think it can be something like this. I have plenty more screenshots, but i will add them later.

Badder Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hi SgtPappas, The heading of Metallica's 'One' piqued my interest! I was expecting to see a field hospital diorama with a poor chap in bed missing his arms and legs. Yes, I know the song. Personally, it's not among the top 10 of my favourite Metallica songs, but it's still a very good one! I think I have an idea of what you're hoping to achieve, but I don't know how you're going to manage it. With the kits you've shown it strikes me that it's not going to be a small diorama! There are plenty of people in BM who will be more than willing to offer advice. Don't be afraid to ask. Tamiya's British infantry on patrol kit is a nice one, with nice natural poses and crisp detailing of the uniforms and equipment. The faces and hands are particularly good when compared to most of their other figure models, which is nice because it makes it a lot easier for those of us who aren't very good at face-painting! I just applied a bit of shading over a lightened flesh base coat and then applied some darker pin washes to the eyes, mouth and insides of the ears and they turned out to be my best ever figures. I look forward to seeing your progress. Rearguards, Badder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SgtPappas Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) Lets te updates begin! According to my idea, in the beginning there will be just painted soldiers and a truck riding, carefree life and beauty. Then will go the soldiers painted in Tamiya NATO Black or Rubber Black for better transmission of parts and halftones. Also the whole area will be painted in the same colors. And after that there will be a section called "war rage" painted in red and black with white skulls instead of heads.
