90mm Wehrmacht youth

I have started out on my next figure this time in 90mm-1/18 scale and using mainly Supersculpey for the main part of the figure over a magicsculpt manakin. I am aiming for a youthfull looking figure around the age of seventeen rather than the typical more mature looking figures, i got the inspiration from reading the book ` The Forgotten Soldier` which is about one mans struggle on the Eastern front while still a teenager fighting as part of the Gross Deutschland Division.

This is the figures now in their completed state and ready for priming prior to painting which will begin once i decide on the groundwork, i am probably going to go for an industrial type scene set in winter.

Just an update to show where i am at with the figures so far, i would say i am about 90% complete with the figures now just some more details to add yet to finish off.

Just a little update to show mainly the work being carried out on the third figure which is the one on the left as you view it, i will be sculpting him wearing a sheepskin jacket and officers breaches with officers marching boots to add to the variety of the three figures. the Kar98 is nearly finished and i will take a moulding of it at this stage to finish it off.

Started work on figure #2 and #3 now and this is how they will appear compsition wise in the final result. The middle figure will be wearing a custom tailored leather jacket over his panzer wrap. I havent decided a pose or cloathing combination for the third figure yet but im contemplating having him as an anti-tank man carrying a panzerfaust or possibly a artillary officer, not decided yet.
