here is my second conversion and repaint French soldier of WWII
to a WWI soldier.
I bought it at the London show.
First he must come down to the base!
that was easy.
So you can see the bag changes.
and instead of the waterjug, I placed a Luger P08 holster.
Also the gas mask bag is homemade.
the paint job is next.

to next time.

When I am looking at the models of soldiers, I can*t trust that an ordinary person can create them, so many small details which require much attention, but still the results worth the affords!

Great work {bravo}}{bravo}}{bravo}}{bravo}} I also make many conversions...When you make a dio, often you need to make conversions and repaints to create the situations and actions you wish.

Great work! I look forward to seeing the finished dio.
