This is my second Challenge, and I have learned to understand, that as this is much of painting, this is also much of teasing/tributing other participants. I hope this falls in the tributing part. :)
I needed something fast to paint after the monstrous nautical entry, so here are two German shepherds, named Kurt and Kampf.
They are actually 1/35 scale models instead of miniatures from Riich.Models. Scale models work better with constructed items like tanks and airplanes rather than living things, where joins are not so easily hidden. These are also realistic scale meaning that the fur texture is very soft, or non-existent, making drybrushing very hard. Anyway, I bought these with discount from Helsinkin ModelExpo 2015, because I have not seen very many 1/35 animals. There were total six of them in the box, I painted four of them earlier, here are all six of them.
Here Kurt and Kampf are shown in their natural environment: Near German tank factory guarding a brand new Sd. Kfz. 166 Sturmpanzer IV Brummbär (Tamiya model, painted about 12 years ago) driven out to the Eastern Front.
Pointswise I think 5 points each is about right, they are based on 25mm washers, so that should give some idea of the size.
Well, you were promised sheepdoggies - you've had one from Fran and now two from Teemu!
Very nice German Shepherds - nice to see them with their friends.
