Augh! German Landspeeder troops!
That is a landspeeder model isn't it? Ah yes of course it is! I can see an R2 unit has fallen out!
Mad!
Where on earth did you find a 15mm landspeeder? Not to mention that nifty looking dog figure. Nice detailing on the skid marks and fence impact too.

15mm landspeeder - Micro-Machines! I've got a few star wars micro machines, and they aren't scaled, but all the same size, so a landspeeder is the same size model as the death star. Just so happened the speeder looked exactly right for 15mm. There would have been an unconsious luke draped over the side, but I mangled the figure a bit getting it out the cockpit. The R2 is scratchbuilt; I do have one almost the right size, but i thought if i couldn't scratch something as simple as an r2 i might aswell give up. So he's made from the end of a paint brush handle with some scraps of placcy for the legs.
Dog's a one-off, sculpted on the smallest wire armature I've ever made. It was going to be a jack russel, but since a 15mm jr is essentially invisible, he became a giant schnauzer instead!

Guess how I did the authentic looking fence impact;
Built the fence, and pushed the speeder through it! Love it, this isn't modelling, it's playing with toys.
