Are you using wire up the leg to hold his pose? Perfect job however you achieved it!
Thanks! I just used a twig that was lying around to prop him up and then erased it afterwards. I always pop him im my bag whenever I go somewhere for a walk...there's always a chance for an Action photo!

My old Scout Car is nearly 45 years old and it's missing the hub caps, the machine gun and almost all its stickers. It's been thrown around the garden, sat on and been blown into the air with bangers, but it's still going strong. How many real cars from 1975 are still driving around?! Palitoy made things to last!

Excellent shot Scott!!!
Yeah, they sure built them to last. Those blow-molded vehicles are bulletproof.

I think those battle-scars only serve to increase the authenticity in a photo. It does not look like a "toy", but a real vehicle that's been through more than a few scrapes. Excellent pose too!
I like the way you have been careful to ensure that the real plants in the foreground are "in scale".

Excellent photo! Love the setting! As others have stated, the real world battle scars give the command car character and a sense of reality.

"I was in a wide semicircle of moorland, with the high hills forming the northern circumference. There was not a sign or sound of a human being, only the gentle bubble of water and the interminable crying of curlews. Yet, oddly enough, for the first time I felt the terror of the hunted on me. It was not the police that I thought of, but the other folk, who knew that I knew their secret and dared not let me live. I was certain that they would pursue me with a keenness and vigilance unknown to the British law, and that once their grip closed on me I should find no mercy. I lit a pipe and went over the whole thing again till my brain grew weary..."
– From the journal of Brace Flynn, Esq.

WOW that’s one stunning background scene behind Brace Flynn. That would make a great postcard.

Another fantastic shot of Brace up in the Moorlands. He looks quite relaxed, although, reading his journal his mind is far from relaxed!

Impressive shot, relaxed and casual posing, and stunning scenery!
Just the right amount of "smoke" curling from the pipe.
