My .02 Euro...
Figure one - dots on pants look two regular (not random enough).
Figure two and three - jackets look much better.
Figure four - OakLeaf looks very good.
Figure five - looks OK, kind of hard to tell from photo angle.
Color and size of camo area looks good. Are you going to blend (dull coat?) and / or
weather them?

For a first attempt I would say that you should be happy with that result. Speaking as someone who doesn´t like to criticize anything ,I put to you the question that we should all ask ourselves," would you change anything if you were to do the same subject again"?. Then I propose ideas ,which in this case I can only suggest using a thinner paint mix (assuming that you have used Vallejo Model colour). The colours of your choice are spot on convincing but I do second the opinion that the regularity of the spots needed some attention because shape,shine,shadow,silhouette & spacing are issues to be dealt with in the basics of all types of camouflage. Nice job there, I hope to see more of your work.

thanks for your response
Mr Anderson "Figure one - dots on pants look two regular (not random enough)."
I agree with you, that was the first try.
Yes am going to blend and weather them.
Mike "I put to you the question that we should all ask ourselves," would you change
anything if you were to do the same subject again"?. "
I agree with that to, but if you do something who is wrong, but you think it look good, you need someone to tell you what’s wrong.
"assuming that you have used Vallejo Model colour"
No I use tamiya, games workshop colour, Humbrol and oil. I don’t have any shop who sells vallejo near to my home, and I think it’s difficult to shop colour on the web,
But I think I must try to buy vallejo, everyone here says it’s the best colour to paint with.

For the first time I think they're very good.
as for criticism....for the pea dot pattern you need more dots & as mentioned earlier, more random.
i think the oak leaf pattern came out good. could use a bit more, but that's nit-picking.
