Nice work, they'll look the business when painted. |

Those are pretty horrible original sculpts. well, at least the man holding the drain pipe is. perhaps it is a roll of wrapping paper meant for the Christmas Truce? While you have taken an OK figure and a useless figure, and made something mildly cool out of them, you still need to bulk out the actually launcher part on the muzzle. the British one is a big thick chunk on the end which gives it a very distinctive silhouette. I own a few, and have used them at WW1 reenactments. They are probably the heaviest of all the WW1 launchers, |

Well done Abwehrshlacht! Getting the rifle off the fellow´s back was particularly impressive. |

Thanks chaps, TJ, it was a lot easier than you think, the plastic was very soft. 'made something mildly cool out of them' thanks, I'll take that as a compliment. |

That works. Looks close enough to let you pick them out on the table. |
