Been awhile since I posted any work so thought I'd put up some picks of what I just finshed (as in 2 minutes ago)
Pics are ordinary - I'll get some outside in natural light tomorrow.
Comments and suggestions welcome -
Cheers,
Another Pic under slightly better light - now if I can just learn to focus ....
The paper name lpate is temporary until the brass one arrives.

Looks great, Andy. What's his unit? Can't make out the cuff title.

Hi Spooky,
the cuff title is grossdeutschland.
I'm really struggling with the macro option of this camera. I just can't seem to get it to focus at certain ranges - most annoying.
I'll try again on the weekend as the photos are disapointing.
He looks much betetr in the flash (particulary his face) although I may be biast :-) :-)

That looks great, Andy! What sort of paints did you use? How much time do you think you spent on this figure?

Thanks for the feedback guys!
Mike I painted this figure in approximately 6 -7 hours including base - I was kind of keeping track as it is the first 1:35 figure that I used blending instead of drybrushing. I used Vajello paints.
All in all a nice figure to paint - except the right hand is way out of scale.
