Kirin Wermacht WWII MG42 gunner - a commission piece

#1 Post by Crazy Joe »

I believe this is the first time I've posted a piece here in this section - I just recently completed this for a customer. It's 1/12th scale, I believe.

Thanks for lookin'

He's got too many buttons on his coat.
Just kidding, that came out awesome. I really love the worn and tired look of the kit.

That looks great.
What really made an impression on me are the skin tones. Love the red you added. Really makes it feel like a cold scene, with the skin flushed from the cold.

Very cool.

This is an old kit, I remember it from the 90's. Sculpted by John Rosengrant and produced by a company called Kirin.
Very nice work
