Here's something else I've been working on. It's an old VLS task force Ivory Coast figure with a Ree Dees head with a beret added. Gear still to be added along with painting the beret badge and possibly adding a blue neck scarf (Camp Strike Force). It also loks a bit glossy in the photo so may add a coat of matt varnish.

Thanks. Tiger stripe has to be the one of the easiest camos to paint.

I really need to finish this one. It's one of the few figures I'm not totally unhappy with. Painting the camo was fun but I struggle with the lettering on the pouches etc so have let it gather dust for a while.
