Re: SPR thread,Sniper duel, with custom figures.

I really hate to come off as corny, but I am gonna anyway.

Peter, I thank you and all the other customizers that share yer work with all of us on these boards. You, Mando, Evilface, 1Kmasks, and Seb are a few that come to mind. Taking what you see in your mind's eye and manipulating plastic, fabric, and paint to create a 1:6 scale work of art astounds me. It brings out the kid in me and that's a nice feeling. So, to all y'all.

Re: SPR thread,Sniper duel, with custom figures.

I was going through this thread last night and I have to say you did some amazing dio work, Peter. Love the effort put into all these shots and the fact that go so far to really weather your figures be it w/ water, mud, or even the sand on the beach head. Shot for shot the sniper duel is my favorite but the entire thread is really fantastic!

Re: SPR thread,Steamboat Willie,custom dio.

Hi guys,

I've been promising to do this one for ages and I've finally managed to get everything together to get it right.

I'm sure you all know the scene, where the ranger squad first meets the real James Ryan after a skirmish with a german patrol in a hanomag.

before I show the pictures of this shoot I just want to show you the size of the background painting I had to use to make this shoot (And it was still too small!!! lol)

Anyway, here's my re-creation of the scene in 1/6th.

Enjoy!:

"Half track, cover!"

"Who's doin, the shootin'!?"

Re: SPR thread,Steamboat Willie,custom dio.

"Move on their right flank! Take their right flank!"

"Hold on, make sure they're down!"

"101st, we're coming out!"

Re: SPR thread,Steamboat Willie,custom dio.

"That was a recon element, 2nd SS. We've been expecting a probe, that must've been it"

"Captain miller, charlie company, second rangers"

"Corporal Henderson, easy company, 501st"

"Ryan, 1st, 506th"

"PFC Tollemy, 3rd, 506th"

"James Francis Ryan?"

"Yes sir, how'd you guess that?"

Deffinately the biggest shoot I've ever done, I hope you enjoyed looking at it and I'm sorry there were so many pictures! lol

All comments appreciated,

Cheers,
Peter.

Re: SPR thread,Halftrack, Cover! dio.

Now that is Bloody Excellent and what a way to showcase them.
So plans to build a Huge indoor display using the backdrop?

Re: SPR thread,Halftrack, Cover! dio.

Very nice work on the halftrack set up. Like the smoke effect from the germans being shot looks great. The customs came out great to.

Best dio on these forums to date.

Makes everyone else look like a total amateur. Doesn't get much more picture perfect that this.

Thanks a lot for sharing.

That is truly an epic scene you have setup. You have great skill with painting and dioramas...
