I assembled several female German soldiers in resin figures in an imaginary situation. They are all beautiful and charming. However, the mold around the eyes is not so sharp, so I don’t know if I can paint the face well.
Even though it is a female figure, it is not a Moe-style figure like an anime character, but rather a realistic figure. They are all very stylish figures, like fashion models.
Each figure has a different degree of skin exposure. The soldier holding the panzerfaust in the middle is a hot pants style with a lot of exposure. The soldier with a short hairstyle on the right has a wide-open chest but long sleeves and long pants. Is the jelly can on the left a little thin?
There are many other female soldier figures released from ARMOR 35. It seems that there are not only women but also animals, children, and swimwear women. I wonder what the concept of the release is. It’s a resin figure, so it’s much more expensive than a plastic figure set.

I have seen in a book that it is written that the skin color gets better when I paint over green paint, so I tried it. But I’m not sure. As it is 1/35 and a female figure, the body is small, and the painting area is small, so I don’t know the effect.
I put on a Tamiya rank seal. I thought it was a simple black uniform; it is surprisingly difficult to paint small parts. I cut out the ones that were too big and adjusted them.
I finished painting the resin figure of a German female soldier. Well, it’s like an erotic sci-fi fantasy figure.
A female soldier’s face is so tiny that it is challenging to paint it compared to a male German tank soldier painted before. Considering the area covered by the hair, the eyes, nose, and mouth seem to be condensed in an area about half the size of a male German tank soldier of Tamiya.
The female soldier figure of ARMOR 35 is expensive because it is made of resin. An injection kit is less than 20 dollars for a set, so resin figures are for enthusiasts. It cost about 100 dollars for 5 of them, including the Russian female soldier I painted before.
When I painted the skin with oil paint, the coating was not smooth, so I patted it lightly with a sponge file, but it didn’t turn out as ideal. It is especially hard for figurines with a lot of exposure. I usually paint only khaki and green clothes, and the skin part is a little, so it is very different.
It’s hard to paint a face. It’s been a struggle. If it had a deeper mold, it would be easier to paint. I thought a similar thing about the Zilpra figure I made before.
The Panzer Faust decal is made by choosing and pasting fine print from the leftovers. It is good if the characters are written in the distance and look natural. It is good if the characters are written in the distance and look natural. I regret that I should have had some leftover Dragon figure kits before, but I probably threw them away when I moved. What a pity.
Maybe in those days, I made a lot of figures and had enough, and I might have wanted to get rid of the tiny parts and become light. It’s strange because I want to make a figure again after a while.
So I lined it up with the German tank type-I. These ladies’ figures would look better if lined up with a stronger-looking tank like a King Tiger or a Tiger I.
