Really interesting and fun project. Your heroine is fabulous the painted figures look great. And that guard who's been knocked out by a barrel smashed over his head, BRILLIANT! Sometimes people do things that make me think "Darn I wish I'd thought of that".

I like your idea and work. :thumbup:
Looking forward to the final combination of all figure.

The only thing is that your (first) lady need a blue line at her back.
Don`t know who this blue top will hold the "load" :love: without it.

Many thanks fro your comments fellows, abouth have the idea, sometimes ago when I see the Wiking "race cars" pictures i think the same!!.
Basically Im a 1/72 military modeler, "specialized" in WWII "softskins" (jeeps, trucks, recon vehicles) but Im quite tired abouth that, cause military modelling is so "rigid" in history, models uniforms etc, You know, the vehicle must be exactly in features, colors and simbols for the exatly moment en the history and in the place, the same with figures and uniforms. In military modelism you can not go wrong the size of a tyre, and if the kit have wrong tyres you must change it, and I m talking just abouth tyres, imagng all the rest, "the suspension of these kit is wrong"... is quite boring...and my shelf is almost all in greens and browns. I have years in modelism and I made hundreds of figures, but the "female" in this topic is just the sixt female figure that I make. Girls did not drive a sdkfz 21 or a jeep in the north africa front....except ambulances may be.
So...I need another wa y to enjoy wth modelism, more free, with more possibilities, "pulp" is interesting, cause in the old comics, nobody cares if the "mafia car" was a Ford or a Chevrolet and if it have the rigt size of the headligths, it wats just a "mafia car", thats all, do that you want or can. Planes wehere not "spitfires in the 5 squad based in norfolk in september 1942" it wehere just "a plane"...and may be this was a car or a pane with impossible modifications, like the 007 jaguar, with a oil spreader to make the enemy cars skid in the road...bu who cares abouth if it is possible or o not? is "pulp", you know.
Think that "pulp" is good for that, and the so called "pulp sci fi" or "retrofuturistc" give even more posibilities.
And if our imagination is not so good, internet is full of "covers" of comics and magazines with great illustrations to inspire.
So I will make more of this" things, may be "sci fy" pulp or something in that stuff
AND I LIKE THIS SITE FOR GVE ME THE OPOTUNITY TO WORK WITH THAT.
And fellows, if you want to work with that, go ahed, I will like to see more works in that way.
The 1/72 military offer a lot of "usable" material for that, and probably nobody will ask "why the heroin is driving a kubelawagen in the 30s in china and why the kubel have chrome ligths???" :-D , man, it is "pulp"!!!

jajajajajajaaaaaaaaa J_A_ i was thinkig the same... is that when painting there was "siesta" program in the TV, and there was Zulma Lobato ...
In case you didnt note she is step in a "toro viejo" cork...
Any way I have two options 1) paint again the face 2) just paint a withe band in the middle of the skirt with a "alto peru campaign" sun in the middle. then evils and hero eating an asado like good friends and plyng "trick" in cards, drinking the "toro viejo" togheter and...
For the best or the worst ( never in the middle) .GO AHEAD ARGENTINA!!!! :yeah: :yeah: :yeah: :yeah:

Do you think I have to change the arabs turbans for baseball hats?
With a dio like that could win a exposition for sure... :eh:
Man, thats too much "pulp"...that more in the Qentin Tarntino's way tah in the 30's comic.
