Well here is (one of ) my favourite figure(s) , recently released but with so much possibilities for use in plenty of dioramas .
I will use this "married couple " very soon in a scene set in Bavaria in 1939. Wait and see

Another cool topic, Guy. Let me see. I never gave this too much thought. May have to be more of my favorite three... coming soon.
 
I've got a few and find it very difficult to narrow it down to one. Here's a few among my favorites:

1st, had to pay a "premium price" for this guy, Korvettenkapitan Gunther Prien. He's always been one of my favorites:


Operation Seahund (2) color by Western Outlaw, on Flickr

2nd, I've enjoyed photographing the SPG Crew, esp. the commander. I also like the Tank Repair Commander - both pictured in this shot:


Panzer Repairs (color) by Western Outlaw, on Flickr

3rd, among the U.S. D-Day collection, I esp. like Advancing w/Rifle & Bayonet:


Combat (color) by Western Outlaw, on Flickr

4th, I've used the following Great Coated Red Army soldier in many images and always liked how he photographed (pictured on left):

5th, this kneeling Tank Rider among my Afrikakorps collection. I've always liked his facial features and pose:


Shores of Casablanca by Western Outlaw, on Flickr

6th, a member of the N. African RAF, Neville Duke:

Very hard to narrow it down, but these are some of my numerous favorites. I have more but these come to mind.

Captain Clark Gable, maybe not the best sculpted figure compared to today's standard but a very unique figure with a lot of character.

Love those WW1 figures, Enrico. Very haunting.

This is my pick. It was the first figure I purchased and is my most treasured. The stance is kinetic (if that makes sense?) and conveys of the drama the soldier is immersed in which gives me a lot of enjoyment. The colours, sculpt (amazing head sculpt IMO (character, hairline, life and expression in the eyes, tash), the way the musket is being held conveys the weight . To achieve this in such a small scale I think is incredible so well done and thank you to the people at K&C. It just looks great--love it! My photos don't do it justice.

Here is mine. Even though I collect a lot of German WWII stuff, this figure speaks volumes. The advancing Brit Tommy
letting loose on a framed photo of the evil dictator that started it all. Epic figure IMO.

Hi Ollie,

thanks a lot for your comment. I've really appreciated your terrific pictures.:) I completely agree with you: the little details make a big difference. {eek3} I always prefer to focus on what has happened at the end of the battle. :rolleyes:

Cheers

Enrico :smile2:
