Lineman at work

This small vignete shows a Lineman at work






I tought it would be fun to do something diffrent to a figure.
So I used a figure (Italeri - American Infantry) who is lying behind his machine gun,
and made a line man out of it.

As pole I used a wooden stick for the barbeque, in top a matchstick with small nails,
beads and some brass wire.
On the ground there is a street from foam, and the boxes as well.
The barbed wire is made out of sewing-thread with a lot of knots,
the two poles are made of small wooden sticks.
The wire is made of brass wire.

Panoramix

Here is the man who makes the drinks for Asterix, and all the village people.
Only Obelix can't get some, because he fell in to the kettle when he was a baby.
It's the druide, also a well known caracter.


From this metal serie I got this figure:

Wounded on the street

Because I painted these figures by mistake for my medical jeep dio,
I forced myself to make a very smal vignette.

Made it of foam, the sidewalk is made of the foam they put the meats
on in the supermarket. The rainpipe is made of a wooden sate stick.

It was my first try of using foam, and here is the result:



even made the drainage in the curb...


The figures I used ar from the Pegasus kit "US Rangers D-Day"

Obelix

This is the second figure from my Asterix and Obelix collection.
Everyone knows this big caracter, the other protagonist from
the well known comics Asterix & Obelix with his dog Idefix


From this metal serie I got this figure:

Medical Jeep

This is my medical jeep, I remodeled it from the Hasegawa kit MT1:

This box comes with a cargotrailer and a 37mm Gun.
I didn’t use them, but in stead I remodeled the jeep in to a ambulance jeep.
The back of the jeep needed to be prepared for 2 stretchers.
So I made a frame of iron wire, and even made a roof on top of it.
I made 2 stretchers, one for a wounded man,
and one that wasn’t expanded yet.

On the stretcher is a fig from an other Hasegawa model,
I had to because I first used another fig,
but when I was painting him I saw that this guy had a piece of arm on him,
seems it was a part of an other guy who was giving him first aid.
So I did make mini vignette for these two guys.
(the fig I mean is the second on the right!)
