Hello everyone
I've recently recieved 3 Live Resin US soldiers, and I'm currently painting one of them. It's been a long time since I've painted a modern soldier, but so far it's coming along nicely I think.
Here's a little teaser
and here you can see more pictures :-)

Nice work Christoffer.
It's sort of to late for this now but;
No clue where I found it, just thought it was a good image so I saved it.
What cheek! Let them have it!

Damn, sorry about that Christoffer.
Your figure painting is great; I also enjoyed skimming around on PanzerMarch. You've got some very solid builds on there.

I'm afraid I have to disappoint you, as I simply can't remember :-p I just mixed what ever I needed with the colors I had at hand when I started painting.
Could maybe come up with a list later

I wasn't able to find any photos of multicam in 1/35 (didn't spend to much time looking tho :-p) so I just kinda went with it and improvised the colors i needed and I'm quite happy with the result.

Pretty close to being done now
Still need to do a few things, but close now. Pretty satisfied with the result so far, except the riffle...could have been a lot better I suppose, but cba to redo it now :-p
More pictures on the blog.
Sorry for the fairly poor quality pictures, using my phone...really need to get a proper camera soon
it does look better when you have the figure in your hands.

I love it! He looks like something out of a sci-fi movie.
I love half-tracks and Tiger tanks. And Lancaster bombers. I model to please myself not others. I may not be the best of modellers, but I'm happy with what I end up with.

Wow, what detail on such a small figure! So are all the colors accurate, meaning if i copy your figure's colors, all the gear and uniform are those colors in Real Life?

This is such a good figure Chris- the camo is just stunning and the overral look with the skull on the face mask is brilliant.

Wow, that's just fantastic Chris! I'm now kinda disappointed with my humble effort
here.
How did you manage to do that face mask so well at that size? Amazing!

Greetings!
So I just decided I really had to get this figure finished....and well here it is. I'm still not quite happy with the weapon, it just looks off some how, probably to bright etc. But this figure was a blast to paint and I can't wait till I get the time to do the other two of them I stored away somewhere :-p
And yes that's a 40mm Warhammer base :-p might as well stick him on something so he don't fall over and break ^^
Hope you like it
*I'm sorry about the halfway out of focus pictures though*
