I started this one last weekend and finished him up Monday night. I used Vallejo and Citadel acrylic paints and alot of patience! The base is dense foam with a stain coat sprinkled with some Woodland Scenics shrubbery and white glue:

COOL! once again nice pics! Great choice of over all colors and tones.

Most make the mistake of too much gloss or way too flat! :thumbsup:

If it is not a problem tell us what colors did you use on the face.
Thanks,
Ham :thumbsup:

Thanks again guys...

I used Citadel acrylic paints on the faces. I started off with the Dark Flesh, and then added washes of Dwarf Flesh (medium skin color) and highlights with Elf Flesh (light skin color). I then used watered down Dark Flesh to accent around the eyes, eyelids, and around the face. The lips had a touch of Red added to Dwarf Flesh. I thinned out Black to shadow the mouth and around the forehead.

On the Roman I started with black for the beard and drybrushed Dark Flesh and White.
I painted the eyes White, then the corneas Dark Flesh with Black outline, then added a dot of white in each. I then coated each eye with Tamiya Clear Yellow to tone them down.

The Fallschirmjager was done basically the same except for a 5:00 shadow wash of Vallejo Blue/Gray on his chin and cheeks.
