The end 1945 – Adolf Hitler

One issue of the Weathering Magazine features a large scale metal figure of “the Führer”, looking over the ruins of Berlin (and his short-lived empire). I found this very inspiring, and decided to purchase the figure from Andrea. The subject is controversial, and this is by no means any glorification of Hitler, but I took the opportunity to paint a larger figure.

I also added another figure, called “the Speaker”, depicting Hitler around 1934 speaking to the public.

I added two small bases, with some scratch built microphones going with the “speaker”. Painting was fun, although quite a challenge due to the considerable weight of the metal figures.
