Foxholes...
« on: 06 May 2016, 05:15:39 PM »



Homemade foxhole markers!





Figures are mainly AB with two from Wartime and are converted from spare vehicle cews, with legs removed, some arms bent to new positions plus the odd headswop.

The dug outs are Miliputt and Green Stuff with various scattered spares mainly from PSC.

These look really good, very nice work!

I wonder if you had full figures split at the waist then you could use the top half in the dugouts then with a pin in the lower half assemble them for in the open action. They would have to be in poses with high arm positions ie firing....makes the  figures more versatile?

And that is the moment you are overthinking it :)
