Done, thanks for comments guys! Not entirely how I imagined it to be, a little too green and I lost some of the painted contrast when I dull-coated it. Also the sarge's logo is not too good. I guess I've reached the limit of my painting skills in 1/72. Time to move onto bigger things?
I did think about Bulldozer and Little Sure Shot...hmmm...

Actually, the green looks pretty good to me. Very reminiscent of the colors used on the covers of the comics. Amazing job in 1/72!

Now all you have to do is the rest of Easy Company!!
The beard on Wildman would be interesting!!!
Nice job by the way.... now I feel the need to pull out all my old Sgt. Rocks in the basement and look at them again!!

thanks for the comments guys! I guess there's a lot of us that enjoyed the Sgt. Rock comics back in the days
I need to move on to other projects, but hopefully I can revisit this one soon - the next one would most likely be bulldozer with firing a .30 cal from a standing position.
@ Mark - thanks for the link to Benno's, looks quite interesting - hope I can post there soon!
