      Wow! Liking this one Peter. The base looks the business as well.

        Many thanks Neil and Steve.

        I changed my mind about the base, feeling it didn't warrant anything too elaborate, so here's the finished thing:

            Thanks Jason - I'm glad I didn't attempt to do the whole figure in the helmet camo.

                      Another great result. I agree, the helmet is particularly good! Was it particularly time consuming, or not completely enjoyable?

                        Thanks Jack.

                        I find spotty camos difficult, because I'm not good at reproducing patterns and they demand some accuracy. I can have a perfect bit of reference in front of me, and attempt to copy it as exactly as possible, but end up with something that's more my own invention, as here.

                          To my eye, your own invention is pretty convincing!! But I understand reproducing that on a larger surface area...

                              Many thanks Monica. Camo has the advantage of adding a bit of colour.
