August set - early preview and opinions

Update 20.07.2021 - First pose preview and test-print.

Hello guys! On weekend I had an opportunity to print the first sculpted pose for the August release, you can find the photos in attachment.

I’ve also quick-painted him using (mostly) Citadel contrasts and washes to highlight details a little bit and show you. Hope you will forgive me my bad skill lol. But at least I am relieved to see that small fastex locks on the general-purpose pouch are at least recognizable despite being extremely tiny.

Also I’ve noted that his head is too big (I guess he is big brain lad in his unit), I will scale it down a bit. Plus i will try to fix his left hand so it fits better than on my prints...

Tomorrow I will start working with other poses. I already have some things in mind and hopefully will be able to share results by the end of week.

Cheers and stay healthy!

Update 17.06.2021

Hello guys! Hope you are doing well!

After some consideration, I’ve decided to switch my plan of work and design a G3 requested by RG Bilton before making the poses and not after, so now I can show the first screenshots of MG3 and G3. I will fiddle on details a bit more for G3, but MG3 is more or less done.

Tomorrow I plan to print all the guns to be sure they will have no issues at release stage.

I’ve also slightly adjusted size of head and (mostly) helmet, because it didn’t look good enough, plus made a straps for foliage.

For now, my main point of attention is the hands. Due to all three guns (not discussing PzF 3 right now) being extremely different, I may end up making not just hands from wrists, but entire hands starting from shoulder, but for now I’m on track to be on time.

Hello, dear patrons!

I am here and working hard on August release to ensure it will be nice and neat. so, I wanted to share my vision and know your opinions.

For August I have chosen German Bundeswehr I wanted to make for a long time.

The sketch shown is wearing distinctive Splitterschutzweste or Flak Vest, webbing mod.95 (not sure how it is called officially unfortunately) and Gefechtshelm M92 with cover (not finished yet).

The loadout shown is quite generic yet proven to be effective from my (limited) experience and correlates with the photos from BW trainings:

- 4 pouches for one G36 mag each on the front-sides

- general purpose bag on the back

- canteen and shovel pouches on the back-sides.

It will vary a bit for different bodies of course, for example i can add one more bag on the top-back for extra capacity for some models, or change the number of pouches, or make mag pouches not one-mag but two-mag.

For the tiers compositions, my plan if the following:

For Corporal Tier: 4 models with G36 + one body option for Panzerfaust 3

For Sergeant Tier: 4 models with G36 + at least two (but I’ll try my best make all of them available) hands options for MG3 + two body options for Panzerfaust 3 (one same as for Corporal + 1 additional) + at least four extra heads wearing Feldmütze caps.

So, what are your opinions? Please share it in the comments! Should I modify the loadout? Or maybe there is some weapon you really want to see? Or everything is fine as it is?
