More tank crews please .....
« on: August 23, 2019, 11:33:17 am »
After building a few kits to represent  damaged and knocked out tanks , I find myself not being able to find suitable  crew  figures . Lots of soldiers in full gear  with their hands in the  air , but no tank crew types . I'm looking for guys surrendering / hand raised  , maybe one crewman helping / dragging a fellow crewman out of a turret side hatch ( Pzr III & IV ) or the drivers hatch ( Sherman / T-34 ) .  There are lots of examples in both plastic and resin from various 1/35 scale companies to give you some ideas .   I would also like some crew doing repairs on their tank , maybe a couple of guys kneeling / bending over checking the  road wheels or track for  damage. And we're  going to need a mechanic or two working on the engine in your full interior Tiger II , no sense hiding all that detail with closed hatches , right ?
