I just got this new pilot in and set him up for a photo shoot with various 1/32 aircraft. He looks like he's smiling for the camera. :)

Very nice - I like poses like this as many are in combat/marching position. They work well for scenes like this. Your diorama is equally nice.

Funny you say he's smiling b/c I have the same figure with my mustang and he's set up having his picture taken by the K&C combat photographer. They fit perfectly together!

Duke, The P-38 and P-51 are 2 of my favorites and look great with the kneeling , smiling figure. He must be happy he is already in a photo shoot ^&grin

great pictures Duke !!!
guy

The aircraft are just great and so are Your photos and dio.{sm4}

Thanks all for the comments.

zblang, that sounds like a nice set up you have with the combat photographer.
 
The USAAF line is terrific from the variety of figures to the planes, seriously doesn't get enough mention on this forum. I'm expecting some more ground vehicles (beyond the jeep) to supplement the line at some future date. The airplanes in your photos are super. Just highlights how varied and colourful those warbirds can be. I recently got the Tuskeegee P-51 and it is easily one of my favourite pieces to date. Thanks for sharing I enjoyed the pics. :cool:

CFM, I'm considering adding a K&C Mustang to my collection but just haven't yet as there are so many things on my want list ahead of it at this time. {eek3} Both new K&C P-51's look great.
 
Duke, your scenes never cease to make me smile mate. Only you could take one figure and one aircraft and produce such good dioramas, your photographic eye and feel for what makes a good scene is second to none. Great work mate.:salute::

Duke, Looking at this scene again the kneeling pilot works wonders to any U.S. aircraft display :salute::

Thanks Wayne. K&C has done a great job on all the USAAF pilots/figures that I have.

Rob, I really appreciate the kind words. Another part of this hobby that is fun to me besides the collecting aspect is trying to decide what pieces of my collection to put together and in what setting. Photography has become a hobby with me so thanks for the encouragement. :)

Heck yes, Taking these babies out of the display cabinets and creating scenes is a very fun, relaxing hobby ^&grin
 
Good looking scenes !.....Simple and effective. The USAF figures are a my favorite K&C figures. I currently have a big K&C USAF diorama in the works, it should be done in a week or two. Your work has inspired me to get it done.
