I got this set of figures last friday, almost 18 months after last post in this thread

The general details are good, however I have no experience and no comparison with mainstream manufacturers. This is my second attempt to modelling figures, the first one was with resin.

I started a build of the soldier which is holding a sign, far right on the boxart. All major pieces (corps, legs and arms) have mould conections marks and needs cleaning. After joinning them together you will a bit of putty to fill the gaps. Sorry to say, but the most difficult for me was to fill the gap at the guy grions...There will also be some problems with attaching the sign with the molded-on hand to the arms. I'll try to do some pictures showing the progress and other details of the model.

No problem, I'll try to write at least few lines about the model. Do you have any pictures of the un-cutt sprues or premission from Miniart to use their pic from the website? I have already cut off one figure and few smaller parts of the other so I'm affraid I'm not able to provide proper pic of the sprues...

There's no problem with using photos from Miniart website as long as they match up with what was actually in your box I look forward to seeing your review

OK, I'll try to post something this weekend - I'll be at home then so I'll be able to make some more detailed pictures of the parts. There is a good pic of the sprue at the Miniart website which I'm going to use.
