If you
can recall, I had already posted Hptmn Stransky, posing as a villain.
Well, it was obvious Sgt Steiner would be a hero. And indeed he is one
of my favourite movie characters: a battle-hardened veteran, who doesn't
expect anything from anyone. Just doing his job to survive the
atrocities and stupidity of the war on the Eastern Front. Betrayed,
survived, and finally went into battle laughing... But at what? Stransky
or the war?
Honestly,
when you're 9, you're fascinated. And indeed James Coburn is one of my
favourite actors. The mini is a former Chiltern miniatures, now SHQ. I
had told Stransky was bad, but this Steiner doesn't look like Steiner at
all. What's with the head? Ah well, I did my best, especially with the
vest, which has 4 different layers. I'm trying more blending when
painting 28mm.
Here is my second bonus entry for the painting challenge, a 25mm mini from SHQ representing Hauptmann Stransky from Cross of Iron. We had to paint something related to a villain. Therefore I chose him.
Voici ma seconde entree bonus pour le challenge organise par Curt, une fig 25mm de SHQ representant Hauptmann Stransky, dans Cross of Iron. Il nous fallait peindre quelque chose en rapport avec un "villain". Et je l'ai naturellement choisi.
