This will (hopefully) end up being my entry for the RMG campain.
It´s the Dragon 1:16 "red Devil" (1606). I like the details of the kit, but not the fit!
I found it impossible to position his arms, as on the box art, so i had to think up something he could carry. I ended up being a container for 3 PIAT rounds.
The "shiny" apperance is to blame on the light and my camera (the user infact )
To do:
1) Strap for the sten
2) another wash
3) a small diorama (something with him coming up the stairs from a basement... )
4) Camoflagestrips on the helmet
Other suggestions will be most welcome!

MrMox,
just entered the Campaign and already a fantastic update to show us !
Some little points of attention :
- maybe tone down hus moustache a bit ?
- add a few more highlights and shadows in his face and on the left hand (right on the pict).
- Don't forget the belts, buckles and buttons
I must make my compliments on the picture... OK it is a bit shiny, but with the flash you can't always control that. It's a nice, large and sharp picture, showing the detail in an excellent way.
My overall thoughts : Some work to do, but very promissing so far !!

Nice subject. I like it and the PIATS are a cool 'add on'.
I would try to define the left hand a bit more, the fingers aren't easy to see. Don't forget a good dose of dust and dirt.
