Default Finally it has arrived ... a 1/4 ... Luftwaffe pilot

Got this pilot off an USA company, 1/4 scale Luftwaffe Pilot, thankfully I've seen pics of Waffen-SS Pz Crew dressed in Luftwaffe leather jackets so I can talk myself out of the "dress code error"
Found a local tailor who will make the Black Pz Wrap and various stuff for my crew.

Thanks boy, he does look like bit of everybody, a mate even said he looks like George W Bush....
DAP: 1/4 accessories are indeed rare, most of the things u have to DIY but a good thing is ... at least 1/4 is big enough to use some alreay available stuff like barbed wires

My plan is to get a "full-complement" of four "visible" crew members (since loader is more-or-less constantly hiding in the turret) for the tank. I've also found a local head sculptor who will slightly alter each head so I won't have an army of the clones

Welldone, Welldone Gabe!

You told mehow far you were with the Pilot you oderd. never seen this one, and i must admit thatHe looks really Good.
A bit is Steve Mqueen in the Legendary Movie ''Bullit'' of 1968. Cant wait for what you're gonna do next, and how amazing it looks in real life.
i juys have to wait i guess? You Could've told that you had the Comdander in!? Now i have to adjust my Youtube Video!

Do you allready have that Program were you have al those photo's? it is then allot easier for me to place photo's of my Panther when it has arrived?


See ya In Hong Kong!


to those who'd like to see the Video that I made for Hatakashi's video here's the Link!

Well, if you still have those 1/6 dolls you can use them as Background material?
and the Bigger the better! you'd use them on the tank or near the tank, and the 1/6 in the background?
