Wonderful job. I have to admit - I like the clean shaven version of his face better. That 'kid' look hit me as war is hell even on teen agers. Leavings ones 'first love'
Not that the unshaven version is bad. That one is well done too. Just my preference.

Toni,

excellent figure painting. The face is one of the best I've ever seen. He's got a real "youngsters look" on his face.

Excellent !!

I finally found a proper figure for my girl. She´s a nurse from Dragon´s German medical team. Staying true to my references, The Finnish Lotta Svärd uniform required some modification.
Hair was resculpted, soldier´s cap was added, some pockets, socks, backpack and pullover were sculpted using Magic sculpt. She´s only missing some straps and then paint!
