HBG US Sculpts

@coachofmany:

These are very preliminary!
I have sent marked up drawings and they are being revised!
Just FYI so you can see them.
Thanks

Priest SP Artillery, Hellcat Tank destroyer, Stuart light tank, Mack Truck, B-25 Medium Bomber, P-51 Mustang

Those look just awesome HBG !!!

Wow, the ground vehicles look amazing mate. The aircraft do seem a bit plain by comparison though.

Coach, those are awesome, It will be great to add these to my US force pool.  Keep up the excellent work.  This going to generate major sales for sure.

Any chance we could get a closer shot of the vehicles?  Looks great though, I’m very excited for these pieces.

I set marks for revisions, I will post better ones when I have them.

Maybe it’s minor, but the wings of the Mitchell are too far back on the fuselage. Or the nose is simply too long. The midline of the turret appears to be just ahead of the leading edge of the wing.

I would say the level of detail on the aircraft is perfect. Remember, if you go too detailed on a scale that small, it makes it look cartoonish. The FMG Italian fighter is close to having this problem.

Well done Coach! This gives me so many new ideas…

Coach I got to hand it to you they look good and I like the new site. Excellent work man.

I prefer killing ALL the lines on the aircraft, just keeping the rudder, elevator, and flap lines. That’s it.

All those lines all over the place look cartoonish.

The lines look fine, keep 'em!

Gotta disagree with you on this one.  I think the extra detail looks great for such small scale pieces.  I really don’t understand why some of you are saying these pieces look “cartoonish”.  I just don’t see it.  They look great to me and I bet they will look even better when he gets the first plastic molds.

I wasn’t saying they look cartoonish now. I was saying leave the detail level where it’s at and don’t try to do more. THAT would make it look overdone.

Don’t make them with less detail.  If you want less detail you can buy more WOTC pieces.  They look great

That Stuart…. :-o. Oh my gosh these look super amazing! You should post a zoomed in picture of those ground vehicles! The level of detail you put in these sculpts is absouloutley astonishing! Great work!

He posted close ups of the vehicles on the facebook page, check em out they look great.

Hey dadler12, could you post a link please?
