Hey guys,
First time I tried to do a modern DCU camo and the Brit uniform.
Pictures aren(t great, but I hope they'll do.
I'm kind off stuck here, I know they are far from perfect, but don't really know how to improve them.
All help and feedback is really appreciated!
Thanks!
Dave

The British camo looks good! I can't quite see the other pictures that well, though.

Hi Dave,
They're looking good, like what you've done with the armour.
Only thing I suggest is adding some highlights to the uniforms & some matt varnish to give the some definition & get rid of the glossy sheen.
Am by no means a figure painting expert myself but reackon it may be what's needed.

you are on the right track but if you are trying to do current camo you are going to have to use ENPART camo

Hey Frank,
Thanks for the reply. I wasn't doing ARPAT, but the older desert camo.
Any ideas on how to improve them?
I think the trousers are ok, but I'm not satisfied with how the woodland camo on the vest looks.
