Good day everyone!
Yesterday it was a day of rest (Bank holiday), and for that I decided to experiment myself with something different- yet again a WW2 theme.
My brother on my birthday, brought to me two gifts (he is a very good lad) - one Italeri's bunker and one set of the new Italeri's fast-build 88mm Flak Gun. I had these two sets ''sitting'', because I was too busy (houses construction).
I decided to make something out of them, and that was a fortified position. I used some foamcore for the base, and I let my imagination run wild!
Still, it's not yet finished (hence the W.I.P post), but the photos will help you get an idea of how this will come out!Much greenery must be put! :-)

Hi T, I like it a lot reminds me of Medal of Honor Breakthrough's Tunisia. Great work.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great, already at this stage of building. I like to see it finished!
ReplyDeleteLooks very nice indeed. I can see this being a really useful piece of terrain. Can't wait until the trees are added.
ReplyDeleteI like it. Will you add interiors to the bunker?
ReplyDeleteGood work !!!
ReplyDeleteDid they have tiolets in bunkers??? Sorry, just me thinking aloud :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking good..the planking...what´s it made from?
Greetings
Paul
Nice stuff.
ReplyDeleteLucky lad to have brothers like that - I'm lucky if I even get a pair of socks as a present off my bro' :-)
I agree with John above about the brother comments.
ReplyDeleteNice work all the same, use a propaganda poster from the Matchbox Revell 251 kit to dress up the bunker!
Keep it up.
Nice work as usual T
ReplyDeleteThank you all!
ReplyDeleteI finished it yesterday night, but I didn't take any photos. Will do today, after work!
@Rob89: I decided to go simple with the bunker. I didn't add anything in the inside.
@Paul: When I did my service, I was sent to a remote outpost for guarding duties. The toilet we had in out fortified (bunker) position, was a hole carved on stone. . Good old days!!!
The planking is made from Balsa (2mm sheet).
@Rich: The 88 gun, was a beauty! It came up very well. I will make an extra post for it in the future!
