1/6th of the Greatest Generation
Lens: Pentax FA 1.4 50mm Camera: K5 Photo Location: Columbia, Maryland ISO: 200 
Posted By: Canis, 02-18-2014, 07:46 PM

Messing around with 1/6th scale figures and LR4. For those familiar or interested, the figures are "kitbashed" using parts and uniform components from different manufacturers. An old hobby blended with my new one. Also, the Division patches are custom made to scale. The 75th Infantry Division aka the "Bulge Busters" were late, but very effective, arrivals to the Battle of the Bulge in late 1944.

I love it!
How tall are these 1/6 models ? I'm guessing like 10 inches or a foot or so.

Great stuff. If it wasn't for the hands I wouldn't know these weren't real.

You've certainly got a lot of detail in those models, which you captured well for this image.

Thanks! The hands! I used LR4 to "erase" the wrist joints, but can't resolve the shine!
