I've finally got the figure (to be butchered in due course) through from auz. I'veade a start on repositioning him to fit in the commander cupola. Representing a commander away from the front line having a quick break.

Looks like you're off to a good start! I'm planning to do the same for mine in the near future.

Oops, sorry for that I can see how you got there. I meant "for mine" as in for my tanks, I have a Tiger and King Tiger. I've ordered crews for both thats what I was getting at but I didn't want to get your thread off topic. Sorry Tom. :{

Hi Tom,
Can I ask where did you get the figure from?? And do they make any other IDF figures. Brian...

It's the verlinden golani captain. Sadly the only IDF figure I could find.

Hey alpha, could be the photo. IMO this is the best verlinden sculpt I've had, there's a load of detail and the face is very realistic. He even has a yarmulke!

Hi ALPHA I think if Tom nails his painting of that commander he could make him look like a guy who has "done to much and seen to much" a real challenge for figure painting don't you think.
