Diego Fernetti's 1/35th Stormtrooper
German Stormtrooper, 1/32nd scale, modified Warriors kit I changed the trousers
of the original figure for the putees and put a grenade (kit provided) in his
right hand instead of the rifle. The hand itself is scratchbuilt with a bit of
styrene and miliput for the fingers. I added a gasmask container (not included
in the kit) and replaced the original rifle for another suitable mauser
carbine. All straps are made with thin foil. I painted the figure with enamels
and pastel pencils. One of the most striking feature of the kit is the
excellent resin base, a lump of mud that shows a british helmet, a rifle stock,
a piece of corrugated metal and even a bit of barbed wire molded into! A pain
to paint it, though.
