Ciao a tutti,

I'm so glad I'm joining this campaign, the subject is the one I've sculpted based on this Life magazine photo.

The turret has been done by a friend of mine and now he's painting it.

Sorry for the crappy picture of the figure in front of the PC, but I couldn't make a better one, anyway I've attached a good one, done under the proper lights setting...

Cool!!

We had a tanker veteran come into our school and tell the story of how they found the place Hitler lived in before becoming the dictator we despise and he found a top hat that belonged to Adolf...he stomped on it and then decided to keep it as a souvenir...wonder if it is the same guy...would be neat!
 
Hi Guys,

I'm in the middle of the process, with my entry.

The face is almost done, still few touch up to do.

The turret was built and painted by a friend of mine.

Let me know what you think.

Ciao

Giovanni

Well, I am certainly impressed, Giovanni. Your ability to sculpt and bring a figure to life is so inspiring. Very weel done, indeed! (y)
 
Ciao a tutti,

I'm keep on painting, this one will be a quick one, because I love it and because there are not so many accessories to paint.

I've kind of finished the uniform, I will surely use a matt varnish to tone down the shine and I will adjust the shadows and highlights.

Let me know what you think and thank you so much for your kind words.

Ciao

Giovanni
