Crashed Dornier and it's crew

To go with the Home Guard guys, I have painted up the Foundry "German Aircrew" set.
My aircrew needed an aircraft to go with them and I decided that I needed something like a crashed bomber.

As it turned out one of my work mates was able to help.

This old bomber started  life about 30 odd years ago when it was built by a young 10 or 11 year old Craig. It lived, for a period of time in the bottom draw of a set of drawers, along with a number of other model planes that Craig had made as a youngster. His parents house was ransacked by burglars and the planes were all damaged to some degree. Craig rebuilt them and kept them, eventually, when he had a place of his own he hung them from the roof in his garage. Next the 7.1 earthquake in 2010 struck and the poor old Dornier along with the rest of the model planes came crashing down. Some of them Craig has rebuilt, again, but this one was a bit far gone. Not for me however, being perfect for the job I had in mind.

 All the undercarriage parts were broken off and lost.........suited me.

 A few other bits and bobs missing but again, all good by me. Apart from that what you see is all Craig's work. All I have done is base the model.

 I added some mesh to the front to make it look like the crew had clambered out of their wreck through the broken nose gunner's area.  One of the crew members looks to have grabbed the machine gun on the way out too.

 There is a fairly big difference in scale between plane and crew but I am not too concerned.

 I think Hodges is trying to tell Mainwaring something. "Look Napoleon they are right there"

Spotted from the air, it will not be long now till the Home Guard are on to them.

Thanks Craig for providing (and making) this essential part for my game.
