Hey guys,

First attempt at painting a german camo.

What do you think?





Thanks!

Looks good to me Dave. The figure looks a little shiney to me, you may want to spray him with some Dullcoat...... could just be the photo though.

Thanks for the feedback Art.

A flat coat is on my to do list.

Any tips for the camo?

Thanks!

Not that I'm great at figures by any means... but with the zoomed in photo, you can pretty clearly see seam marks on the pointing arm.

As far as the camo, looks good to me. Maybe try and get a few highlights, or if easier, use a wash to get some shadows.
