Hi

Impressive indeed, but Calvin doesn't go into detail how he achieved the "pixelated" look. I thought the German WW2 stuff was bad enough !! For the sake of my eyes and my blood pressure there's no way I'm tackling this stuff......

Ahh the old Calvin Tan approach-be born a natural master, paint tons of unbelievable figures, make everything look easy, everyone else struggles away at trying out different techniques for acu painting, pick up a figure and give acu a go and it turns out perfect......hopefully he will divulge some more info on how this was done.

Yeah, great job he did but I really couldn't piece together anything there as far as a "how to". Too bad, that guy has skills and it would sure be nice to get some tips from him on it.
