A LEGEND IN MINIATURE
Posted: Sat Mar 09, 2024 3:15 am
Taking advantage of pre ordering, I just got hold of a magical 16th scale Otto Carius figure from Takom out of BNA Modelworld.
I plan to get him into a Hobby Boss T1 that is a static which is in dire need of TLC.
Im getting 2 HB T1's to roll into one for $100 so no great heartache to spend the time on to get looking ok.
I also have an actual hand signed picture that Mr Carius penned some years ago that was sadly shoved into an old book with little regard for its provenance & was accidentally rediscovered & not wanted by its owner.
There are 2 of these pictures that were signed by Mr Carius in his pharmacy years ago during a visit by an interested traveler, not the person I got it off though.
Amazing to have it here & I intend to show due respect to the Late Mans image and historical significance in some small way at least.
Makes me quite nervous to paint it when the time comes.
