The figure itself is pretty flat. <br /><br />The backdrop is something I painted years ago for displaying WSS flats in a curio. It looks a bit too arid to properly be Flanders but it's come in surprisingly handy for various photos.<br /><br />Spenkuch actually made some gunners in their 40mm naval landing party set which should fit in nicely with this figure but Berliner Zinnfiguren is asking too much for it.<br />Corporal_Trimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00376387688651637091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-86632633578136019492015-06-10T17:16:08.716-07:002015-06-10T17:16:08.716-07:00Thanks very much, Alan.Thanks very much, Alan.Corporal_Trimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00376387688651637091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-85260128484485664632015-06-10T13:35:23.508-07:002015-06-10T13:35:23.508-07:00What an interesting and charming piece!

I can picture hordes of naval gunners being cast up and being sent off to play.<br /><br />The offset wheels are an interesting touch and combined with your painting give an illusion of greater depth.
