I haven't purchased the dead German or Russian yet because i didn't like the bases. How difficult was it to separate the figure and base Sammy?

Hi Frank, removing the base from the Russian was some what easy, I used a set of tweezers and very gently put the tweezers between the base and chest of soldier and gave it a little lift, once it was loose I basically wiggled the base off again being very careful, there are 2-3 small pins that connect the 2 pieces.

As far as your photo always look forward to seeing what you post, beautiful background as well as the First Legion sets...Sammy

Sammy,
to accompany the sets that I made (now exported in an Australian collector), I found among different manufacturer Tamiya, Britains and master class (animals) and accessories at Historex manufacturer.
They are 1/35 scale, but consistent with 1/30.
Plastic glue and paint.
Guy.

I'm definitely not worthy when compared to the detail and photography skills most of you guys achieve with your work-but I enjoy trying to improve-some 'gritty' urban combat:

Don't be so modest Mike, your photos are just as good as anyone's, and as far as gritty combat, the grittier the better I say!! ...Sammy

Are you kidding me, those are two of the best I have seen. So close to old B&W action fotos!
