RAF pilot, WW2

[tigrazor]

Hi all,

after the FeR miniatures RFC pilot bust theres this guy on my bench - a British WW2 pilot. As always the bust was primed black, and thin layers of reddish brown for the leather followed (Vallejo 343, Flesh Shadows). Then a dark brown wash followed (AK). In most cases, the jackets were made from sheep skin, thats why the collar looks a bit yellowish.

Looking good Lucas. I think you got the sheepwool lining spot on!

Thank you Dierk! A sponge helped a lot here.

Great seeing you pop another bust onto the bench so soon Lucas!! Things are shaping up quickly!

Thank you T. Yeah, it was fun to paint his face, especially when you work wet in wet plus the washings. I worked on the leather cap as well, and have to say that the AK wash is really really helpful here.
