discussion Sgt Elias

[Lee W]

Hey peeps,
Thought I'd crack on with Willem Dafoe, Sgt Elias from the 1986 film Platoon.
I feel theres something missing from him... yes, obviously his body, I know i have to also clean up his eyes and tone down the shading under his eyes but I feel that something else isnt right.
I have gone for a sweaty hot look... what do you think guys?

Interesting figure Lee. He sure looks hot indeed - have fun, cheers

He looks like he's in the jungle humidity. I'm no figure painter, but if you want an opinion, it would be that his hair could be darker for that wet look. The face looks good to me.

Thanks Joe, his hair was black and I've just gone over it with lighter brown dry brush, it does need a couple more coats to be honest
