WIP pictures

Holger Kranich
Till Valhall!!! Looks like the bow of the Oseberg ship. Will you add a dark wash to the wooden planking?

Choppa Nutta
Really needs an ocean diorama to sit upon 😉 😄

nice sculpt 🙂

Kees Kleijwegt
Holger, there already is a (light) wash over the planking. In 'real life' it's a bit darker than in the photo.
And I'm afraid that if I add another, the contrast between figure and base will be to large.

Choppa, I thought about that ocean too, but that wouldn't be quite right. With an ocean base, the ship would be too deep in the water for a viking ship.
And by not doing the base, I can focus on painting 🙂
Anyhow, it is indeed a great sculpt, thanks to the guys at Nocturna models! 👍

Kim Branders
Off to wallhala.

Choppa Nutta
Kees, I didn't mean a dio for the whole boat, just the bit you have there
so it looks like he is standing on the bow of a sinking ship 🙂

Patrick Hagelstein
This looks to be going to be a cool vignette!

Spanjaard
looks really good so far Kees... and the figure seems amazing, looking foward seeing it with paint 🙂
i did not know Nocturna models. they have some really nice figures

Kees Kleijwegt
Thank Arne! All set for your trip to England?

arne vd burg
No not yet , got a whole month to get ready.

Erik Leijdens
Very beautiful Kees. Every time I see a figure of your hand I want to make one too

Kees Kleijwegt
So why not take the jump Erik? A whole new modeling world to explore with new techniques and other stuff.
There are also a lot of cool larger scale pilot figures on the market, to keep it in your comfort zone 😉

And by the way, every time I see one of your plane builds it makes me want to build a plane kit.
Now that you mention it, there's a P-51b trying to crawl out of my stash 🙂🙂

Kees Kleijwegt
And thanks for the kind words Erik, they are very
supportive and appreciated.
