Panzer Grenadier (1940) : Ready

I think at this is my best figure so far. its fun make figure its nor take half years - years ad diorama. so not my last vignette.  But next work is diorama. 

I gratified almost every thing this work.but name plate i thin at  i must order  new.

it's very hard to take photo in Finland this time of year. almost dark all day. Photos is always over light or too dark. I wish at  Santa Claus will bring me new light system. Then maybe better photos.

i hope at you enjoy!
