Modern wars in 1/35- project log

Nice sculpts. Curious for a Hungarian that you seem to have modelled one as a very good likeness of Julius von Haynau.

Thank you!
Nah, he was made after the Hungarian rock musician Attila Gidófalvy:

Haynau, maybe still the most hated man in Hungary (and wow, I can tell you, that is one hell of a contest ), had a moustache far less dangling, more on the twirled side. I will need a model of him though, for the 28mm 1848 project

Very interesting.  Really like the chap smoking the cigar!

Thank you! I made that to be a gangster, but also to be a great conversion fodder for figures like this hunter.

This girl was a bonus model for a car, I just built her as a simple civilian.

You could alsways do a model of him being  beaten up by a London mob outside a brewery.

Wonderfully smooth transitions on the skin and fabric. It‘s more difficult with bigger miniatures, thus very well done!

Thank you! I was really happy to have this figure (as I said, she came with a sportscar which I am making into a Gaslands car), sometimes it is a relief to paint something non-military colours
With artist oils it is really easy to make smooth transitions, the entire figure took like 50 minutes to paint (The shoes are the only parts not made with oils, not counting the base layers)

Nice.  And they don't need to worry about finding a barber...

Who do you think is maintaining their magnificent goatee?

Soviet decontamination team. (from the same ICM set the other team came from on pg1)

Very nice!

Of course for bigger jobs you might want a TMS-65. Reckon it would probably get stains off the driveway and any paths pretty handily too.

Not that, but I might build a TZ-74 one day!

Present-day Hungarian soldiers. They are resin American figures with minor tweaks, modern military equipment is really easy as basically anything goes, a lot of armies buy stuff from 3rd party manufacturers or simply allow soldiers to buy gear like MOLLE pockets. Well, at least in the Hungarian Army it is a common practice. My only concern was getting the gun, the new Bren2 assault rifle is not easy to find in 1/35 but there is always a 3d manufaturer who does it.
...yeah, ok, my second concern was painting the 6-tone camouflage of the 2015M uniform, but after looking at a lot of pictures, I found the proper combination.

Those Hungarian chaps look good!

Nice work on the camo!

Thank you, guys!The 2015M uniform is an interesting topic as it is worn by both the professional soldiers (shown on the picture) and also by the reservists who are equipped mostly wit WP gear otherwise (AK-s, SSh helmets, etc).
