Here's the head on the dude, I'm fairly happy with it, though the chin strp on the helmet I have yet to identify. I'll be looking for that info after I post this photo... so that may be changing.... Comments welcome (just a note, there are knit ends on the sleves that are attached to the hands and will fill that awful looking void thankfully!) This is about 60 percent done and is an OOP Verlinden kit in 120MM.

I guess the kit is right (didn't match the refs I was using but this style is out there...



Found this on a great ref site for Brit para stuff...

Nate,

awesome update again. These updates are a permanent motivation for me and fellow modelers to continue. Awesome painting !

I sent you my picture collection of WWII British Paratrooper Helmets by email for reference purposes. As you can see your current helmet is pretty accurate as it is ! Great update again.

Looking good Nate.
Arthur

Very nice!!Keep the pics coming!!

Thanks for the photos Danny, the chinstrap has been repainted black....
