1:18th Custom Buildings, SWAT, Soft goods German Long Coat!

Post by Robopredator » Sat Nov 03, 2007 2:10 am

I was working on these projects this past week, the German long coat is my standard black trench, but I took in the back to give it a slimmer fit as oppose to the gijoe figures. I have some plans a short version, british tan coat, german grey with red black collar combo, and some Russian WWII winter coats. Coat has 2 outer pockets and 2 inner pockets

The smaller building was for a client and the 2 story warehouse is a WIP i just finished the stairs, and am casting the windows, the smaller building measures 16x12x9 inches and the larger is 16x24X12 the doors are casted material as are the windows, I made an original and made copies. Construction is all MDF, with pine corners, brad nails and screws, countersunk can be covered with bondo or a puddy. the ski mask guy is a microman custom with a new camo pattern i found, i went with brown boots cuz i always goe with basic black but i wanted to try some diff combos,
any feedback is greatly appreciated!
for additional info drop me a pm,

thanks!
Robo :)
