Thought I'd do this as a change from all the horror & Sci-fi kits I've been doing lately,




Started with the head, using Andrea acrylics.




Sleeves painted with Humbrol 93


SLR painted with matt black and given a rub over with a pencil

Looking at the picture of the SLR,the front stock is more like the old wooden ones than the plastic,the latter being less rounded.

[FrancieT]

Got the DPM jacket painted, not 100% happy with it but I don't think I can do any better.

[jimbuna]

Looking good.

SLR and ammo pouches added. Just need to work out how to curve some clear acetate for the visor,

[FrancieT]

Almost finished, just need to decide on a name plate for the base.

That is very nice!
Some great castings to start with and you've done a lovely job painting him, especially on the DPM.
Don't know if its the lighting but there is usualy more contrast between the plastic parts and metal work of an SLR;



Great work!

[FrancieT]

Cheers, no, it's not the lighting, I might just give the metal parts for the SLR another go with some graphite powder.
