Thank you, hope you enjoyed....👍

Thanks Lawrence, it’s a great subject to work on 👍

Thank you 🙂👍

Hi Martin, thanks for that! Yeah the Stalingrad guys were too nice to pass up on...Now just waiting for them to become available in the UK...🥱🥱 Nice project to work on, appreciate the feedback, cheers bud👍

The use of actual footage to first set the scene is a great idea! I’ve done it with stills, but not with video. Excellent.

Thank again 🙂👍

Thank you - appreciate that 👍

😁 Cheers John, thanks for that! Just waiting for the last 2 ‘reinforcements’’ to arrive in the post & it’s done - another week or so 🙂👍

@@Barbarossamodels I'm seriously looking forward to it, and future projects. The detail you put in is just mindblowingly good.

@@johnwoodside8714 thanks again John👍

Thank you... just finishing it off now - part 2 video up in a couple of days 👍

Thank you 🙂👍

@@Barbarossamodels Your welcome.

Cheers bud🙂👍

@@Barbarossamodels 😮 Gero contacted me on Friday asking if I'd like some free stuff as well.......I hope the list I sent back wasn't too long 😜

Nice one, can’t beat a feeebie!! I’m sure you’ll enjoy 😊👍

They stupidly said 'pick what you want'.... 😮

😯....did you have enough paper...???📝📝📝

Thank you, appreciate that 🙂

Cheers Andrew! Was a bit gutted when I saw the Stalingrad release, but ‘figured’ a way of incorporating those 2 guys & as you say they did me a favour & added another element! The building itself is a nice piece..thanks again.👍

Thanks Mark, gotta love Stalingrad figures.... Glad you enjoyed the video, enjoy putting them together almost as much as the modelling itself!

Thanks for the comment Pablo 🙏

Thank you Tom! I do try & include as much detailing as I can, it does help to improve the overall look. Still plenty more to add. The wallpaper is simple enough to do, feels more personal when you’re created your own. Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed 👍

Cheers Stephen🙏

Thank you Greg. They are nice buildings you’re right, would certainly look to get another in future. Nice subject to work on, nice change from regular infantry, tank crews etc...thanks for the feedback 🙂👍

Cheers Robbo, appreciate that! Nice to do the research behind the scene, helps with the ideas....thanks for the comment👍

Cheers Greg, thanks for that!😁

Thanks Paulo, very kind 🙂👍

Cheers Eric, yeah it didn’t come with an instruction sheet🤔😏, just about managed to work it out!! Thanks for commenting, appreciated 👍

☺️Thank you!

Cheers, thank you 👍

Thanks Carlos👍

Thanks Alan🙂 As you say, although the building is pre made, it does still take some effort to bring it to life! The insides allows the ‘interior designer’ to let loose a little....if only to destroy it all again...🤨😁 Appreciate the feedback👍

Thank you so much....👍

Thank you, loadsa ideas & advice out there, as well as some great books... My advice - start small & enjoy! 🙂👍

Thanks as always Joachim👍 Hopefully I’ll do the figures justice, it’s been good trying to find a nice mix of Volkssturm & Hitlerjugend, interesting subject what these guys went through.....😕

You are absolutely right. Even if the background of these incidents is not good, I think it will become an impressive work with the right arrangement. 👍 Greetings

Thanks Michael👍

Thanks Luc👍

Cheers Tom 🙂👍

@@Barbarossamodels No problem. They give me a lot of inspiration

Bonjour, merci beaucoup!!! Thanks for the comment 🙂👍

Thanks Phil....🙏

Cheers Kevin 🙏

Cheers bud 👍 Yes it is along the lines of ‘End of Days’, just a different perspective ( & a lot smaller!) Actually used the same wallpapers as the buildings in that dio, as well as using some of the posters & other details... Thanks for commenting 🙏

Hi John, thanks for that. Glad you liked the beginning, gives a sense of what these very young & old went through at that time, & the futility of it all... Cheers 👍

Thanks Stuart 👍

Cheers Nick! To be honest thought this might be a ‘quick’ project as the building was pretty much already made! How wrong I was.....😩🙁😏👍

Thank you!🙏

Fair point, I appreciate that’s why the company made the kit that tall. Personally for me, I thought it still looked too big on the corner, out of scale to the building & figures although seeing wartime images they were obviously really high. Still happy with the way it is though, still prefer it that way. Appreciate the feedback, cheers 🙂👍

Many thanks, glad you liked it....thanks for commenting!

Thanks Christopher, you’ve a nice set there with A&B, loads of scope for a nice diorama👍 For wallpaper, I simply went to an online website for regular wallpaper, copy & pasted a sample thumbnail, and using Microsoft Word built up sheets of paper which could be simply printed off. Obviously the thumbnail needs to be to scale, & not all patterns are suitable, but there’s still usually a wide choice to choose from! The building colour is Vallejos cement colour 71.045, perhaps with a little 70.830 added in? Glad you got something out of the video - good luck with yours🙂👍

Thank you...🙂👍

Thanks, glad you like it! Took the barricade idea from a Tamiya magazine article a few years ago, fun to put together & you can fill it with all kinds of debris & clutter😉 Cheers for the comment 👍

Thank you! I always use Vallejo paints, thinned with water a little. For the bricks I started with a red base coat, mixing different shades to create a colour I was happy with. Keep that base coat colour in a sealed jar for later if necessary. The I just added various tones like burnt sienna & sand brown to that base colour, applied to individual random bricks to vary things up. The solid wall colour was Vallejo Cement 71.045 blended with a touch of green. Hope that helps....👍

Hi Jan, thanks for that! I’m not completely sure what exact colours I’d have used, but would’ve been 3 - 4 shades of Vallejo grey. Perhaps 836 London Grey, 869 Basalt Grey & 989 Sky Grey…?? These are colours I regularly use, plus an oil wash with Burnt Umber afterwards picks out even more detail. Hope that helps 👍

Thxsa😊

It was from Historex Agents, product code RIS35187:-www.historexagents.com It comes with a load of posters, advertisements etc..., although I made my own👍

Wow, that sounds pretty bad Chip...☹️ Have to admit when mine arrived it was really well packed. But I’ve have had broken items arrive from a different company elsewhere in the past & it is annoying....but even more so if you had things missing too 😔
