Oops sorry those pouches look dry brushed.

 

[geegad]

It's all right buddy I suck a dry brushing always leave to much paint on the brush and end up making a right mess

 

[monica]

real nice work so far John,


did you use field green 1 ?


and the black is not a black but looks like so kind of charcoal ?


and with both base colors are very good ,and with the highs and lows look great,

 

[Guest]

Nice! Very nice

 

[tr1ckey66]

Really excellent work John. Your approach to figure painting is (I think) the same as mine. Lovely natural highlight and shadow in the folds of the uniform, this is going to be good.


The texture you've applied to the bottle looks just right too.


Cheers

[Guest]

[tr1ckey66]

Out of interest, why did you start a new thread to continue your build of this figure? Didn't you start this in the 1/16 SIG?


Just curious
