Re: Friday ... ?

The French cavalry/cuirassier standard bearer is many things...dashing, heroic, superb, well-proportioned etc etc....I like it:grin: !!

The German WW1 infantry at rest/making merry look very good, and I can already see myself buying a set or two of these simply as a 'one off' and maybe to create a small diorama, complete with cooking bratwurst aromas!!:hotdog: :fork_and_knife:

The Italian infantryman...well, he looks a little weary and I'm not entirely sure about the pose...? The sculpting is nice though.

Have a good weekend:relaxed:

Re: Friday ... ?

I see our Italian looking down at a fresh grave of a recently fallen comrade, at such times Officers and NCO`s are human too.

Re: Friday ... ?

Nice figures, especially the WW1 germans at rest. Hope we will receive in this set more soldiers and eventually only one field-kitchen. The posture of the WSS-officer is also very nice, but please without or a reduced flag. Cutting are causing often repairs.

I would like to ask again what will been with the long ago announced WW1 Gallipoli troops. I know that they didn´t fought in a dessert, but in a very dry region. Eventually this remark will help to see a progress.

Re: Friday ... ?

Thats what I thought. He looks like he is looking down on someone's grave.
I'm sure he could equally be used stood talking to someone sat down..maybe a radio operator?

I don’t know who it was that defined a gentleman as someone who knows how to play an accordion,but refrains.😇😀

Strelets
Gentlemen,

despite some calls, let's leave desert rest in peace for a time-being
Strelets message before the picture hints that the Italian chap is indeed at a funeral service. If he was a British soldier he might in that case have his rifle reversed and thus avoid the outrage of his sergeant and Steve. But he should be aware that accidently shooting himself in the foot is probably also a court martial offence.

The WWI Germans look good, and another member for the 1/72 plastic folk club.:relaxed:
