In the previous post I included this figure in a row of Miltra figures.
I like this a lot and thought he deserved some pictures on his own. Not sure if he is a 'tanker' or a 'para' but I think he has something about him.. Not something you can often say for a figure just standing unarmed. The figure is a bit 'flat on the back' but that seems to be a bit of a 'style thing', as some of the others are the same.
Whilst Jack was busy casting up some figures for me, I had another rummage through his scrap box and moulds.
My latest find - Miltra figures? Also a mould marked German Para trooper. The figure has open hands.
Jack tells me that he was one of four making the figures but his role turned into the mould maker, gathering in the work of the other modellers and producing the moulds and casting them. Anyway some bits for your thoughts.
The first figure in the beret is really well done.
I think both these figures are Poles. The one in the helmet looks like he should have been seated on a gun.
The brown staining on the figure loading looks like rust!
