These are a set loosely based on the Ice Station Zebra.
(As people know I'm not a fan of sculpting ' ;) NOT' figures ( unles its for my youngest and he can have what he wants Hense the Tin Tin .))
I read the book rather than watching the film. So I've gone with slightly older looking spies and the officer a more jar head feel.The main nod to the film is the out fits.As I do enjoy the visual of the spies being in fur skins.The subtle cue that the more skilled spy has luxurious furs and boots than his counter part.The fact it visually separates the soldiers and sailors on both sides embroiled in their own issues.

Fantastic work. Many thanks Mark.
These lovely character models are going to be the first stretch goals in the Sally 4th Classic Movies / Whiteout Kick Starter which is scheduled to run for 2 weeks in June.
The next pack that Mark is working on for it is a character pack inspired by 'The Thing'.
I can't wait to see what he comes up with!

Thank you chaps.
It'll be more a hybrid pack inspired by both the black and white film and the Kurt Russel film.Than any one source.

I did pop a thread on Future wars on 'The Thing.' But since I've. mentioned it here (and the thread faded into the eather lol)
Here's my musings on the subject.
Also a couple of ww2 artillery crews.(if a little dusty)

Whilst re working the artillery crews. I've been doing a spot of upcycling with the heads from the crews.
The sailors in tin hats are a private commission. But the naval landing party will be the Follies range , and the dismounted motorcycle riders will go in with the Homefront stuff. Once they've been tidied up a little.
( I am sort of tinkering around the '38 - '40 mark though. ;) )
