Figures are fun, but eh in 1:350 in particular, it seems super expensive.

Spanjaard, actually, all of those figures, including truck finished in garbage. I started project all over, it's almost done... I will post some pictures as a teaser right now...

Good job! Can't even imagine how much time & effort spent on these figures... In my opinion they are much more time consuming than painting & weathering a vehicle!

Excellent project. I was always toying with something similar, not sure I have your perseverance to finish it 😭

Thank you all for comments. This is hardest and longest project I ever worked on. I think only one of all of this figures is as it came from the factory. So, lots of frankensteining, labotomies to make heads with caps. Overall, there is more then 400 decals. Most of figures are resin, many of them really hard to find. Total cost of this stupid idea of mine is more then 700 euro... Just don't tell that to my wife.

Top work here! Quantity and quality of figure painting are outstanding. I like the individual facial expressions and eyes you achieved here. Notwithstanding vehicle and terrain are also first rate. So this diorama seems completed to me. What else is to come? And: Who´s driving the lorry?

Between 70 and 80. Lorry is an old model, I hope to redo it next year.

I would love to see this beauty person, i am sure it is much better than in the pictures (and that is lot already!) Painting a couple of figures with that level of detail, is amazing. Painting more than 70 is beyond words.

Spanjard, this was a learning project. I needed some time to find a way to tackle the eyes. I think that they are, together with hands, most important part of the figure. Next problem was finding enough of quality DAK figures. Early on I decided that I want them all to have tunic and long pants and finding that kind of figures without strips, belts and hanging equipment is challenge of it self. Secondly, I wanted to paint every one of them in different color, which is not that visible because of my home made wash, which is equalizing colors quite a bit. Thirdly, matching all kind of legs, hands, desert boots to bodies and heads to caps was lot of work to. Plus, I never thought that truck will swallow that many figures. Not to forget waiting time for all the deliveries, which is putting you in ON OFF mode and make you burn down. So, yes, it was quite a job, but fun and challenging one, for shore.

Most important part is that I am no artist. If I can do it, anybody can. All of this figures are painted in a simple way. No primer, just paint, one wash for body and legs, one for face, then decals and flat clear at the end. No highlights, no dry brushing... And all of that done in one evening... Simple and fast.

Wow, that is a truckload of figure painting - and not just quantity. Respect for your perseverance. Yor probably painted more figures for this project than most military modellers in their whole career. 😉
