Desert Rats Part One , Part Two and Part Three

I was going to ask... some of this German appears to be very dialectical or jargon-ish?

Yes, Hans is clearly from Bavaria, that´s the dialect he is speaking. He is a bit miffed that he is out of ammo.

Great! The posing of the figure and the diorama are perfect. I love your humor, Ephiane!

Speaking of the Rommels Desert Campaign:

Thanks, ZeroDelta. Funny, my grandmother was born in München, but I was only taught Hochdeutsch. Unfortunately, I've forgotten most of it, or rather how to speak it, as I can still read a lot. But the reflection of dialect/jargon was throwing me off.
Interesting video. War without hate sounds like an improvement on war (or anything) with hate.

Thanks Gube. Yes here is Hans Heinrich  " Heini "  Stadelhuber.    He´s waiting for his equipment, but he has already some Afrika Korps Clothes.

Thnak You Stryker. Don´t worry he´s fine.

Thanks Bob. I love Your work too.

I love his grimace face, he really looks like he has a bad feeling about it, but also found it kinda funny.

Thanks Ovy. The Face of Hans works with the face App as well.

Thank You very much, Sky.

Thanks csyeung.It´s just stolen form a barbie and glued to the facepool head.

Yes Gube. I thought it will be funny to give him bavarian dialect.

Thanks Delta for the translation.

Thank You Randam. My humor is complicate, i think. I lost some friends by sarcasm.

Ah, Great. Thanks Delta. Great hystorical facts. Here´s more. The tiger tank was not the masterpiece of german engeneering. It was the first camping chair.

Oh, look. We are really multi cultured here. And Yes, War is not funny for sure. I´m glad You like it. I hope no one feels insulted by give war a funny aspect.

Der arme Heini! I love this figure too, and all the humor and customization that went into making him. Looking forward to more of your humorous, creative, and good-natured contributions.

Hans looks great. Both of these characters are awesome.

Stryker2011 wrote:Fun character and photos, Ephi. That hairstyle is wild.

Oh, look. By the way.... the hair style is really wild. Looks like it´s trendy for the 1940 ´.

Unusual pose, nice parallelism.

Great looking figures and diorama Ephi!

Fesch gschaut's aus der Stadlhuberheini, der oide Batzi.

Great job, they have the vibe of a comedy duo, Heini being the little nervous choleric one, while Stan being the funny simple one. Stan & Heini.

Love the forced smile the Faceapp gives him and of course that hairjob.

Brilliant work!

Great stuff! I'm looking forward to see more of Hans and Stan in the future.

That’s a neat recreation of the sitting position — you just need a couple stick grenades for a seat.

Oh I love this! Stanley has such personality!

Part 3 : The alround Tool

























Stanley´s glases are a trash, i know  But it´s selfmade and functional. Let´s think he broke it more than one time. That´s why it looks so crappy

lol, great stuff.

Delightful, as always. The German dialect is a bit beyond me, and when Heini started, I thought he was playing Hungarian. But I enjoy your figures, their interaction, posing, imperfections, environment, and your photography enormously.

Man, can't get enough of these 2. Fantastic photos and interactions as always.

Thanks Gube. Yes True. You don´t need to understand the gibberish Heini speaks. You can read it in the mimic and the poses    He´s a typical german smart ass

Hey Rev. So good to see You are still active here. Thanks so much. Btw. the littel Gas Lantern is really nice. Like to recommend it to WW 2 era bashers.

I think you mean smart hiney? Sorry, couldn't resist (hiney < hind < behind ~ ass, but not of the donkey variety). The shot with the lantern is gorgeous.

I think your reappearance brought back the good Reverend. Both are very welcome returns and I'm sure I'm not the only one who wishes we would see both of you here more.

I must have secretly sensed Ephiane had posted new work! And it felt good to get back on here today. Some positive life changes will hopefully have me on here a bit more in general, and for now I was excited to get to share some new work too.

And that lantern really is killer. I actually have one I added a light to myself, and haven't even had the chance to shoot, but now I want one of these as well.

That was awesome. I kept expecting at any minute there was going to be an explosion -- and no more Hans or Heini. Keep 'em coming; good stuff.

That was funny, I like the glasses they look really beat up and fit in with the rest.
