The Opel Blitz is finished – moving on to the figures

Now the Opel is finished! It went all quite well in the end: painting the tarp (base color with Tamiya mixture, then some pigments and pin washes), fixing the driver’s cab to the frame, and finally adding some more weathering (dirt splashes etc.) to harmonize the different parts of the vehicle.

Now I will add another three figures. One is from Alpine, slightly reworked:

The other two figur are two guys originally rolling fuel drums, terribly sculpted and currently being strongly reworked:

Now the Alpine Figure is almost finished:
