That is a 1/35 figure for my T-34 dio... I still have to paint the backpack, ammo pouch and weapon. ACW  |

This looks very very nice so far. May be some more lights and shadows at the skin ?
Good work !!

Heiner, thanks a lot. I think I'll try to add more depth to the next I'll do, I've already glued the head to the body and this make hard to paint it more...
Todd, too kind, I'm a beginner in 1/35 figure painting...

I still have problems in thinning correctly the paint... This makes hard to go further with higlights and shadows... But I promise I will start a new one from the same kit to try to improve it |

you want it really really thin like dirty water, load your brush but dab it on some tissue to take off almost all of it. then brush it on in layers

I know, I have the mythical DVD. I fail to be consistent in thinning, that's my problem.

Let's hope so, SPud In the meantime, I added Pyotr to the T-34 Dio, which now I call complete: |

Hey Luigi, Great job with the fig brother. Its a great addition to what is on of my personal favorite builds this year. Off topic: I like the Bull's head. My birth sign is Taurus the Bull and with a few mionr adjustments, that would make a killer tattoo on my upper back! Gary |

Missed the update on the figure. Love it figure(s) are added... they simply bring life to the builds. I'd hate to be stabbed with that LONG bayonet...

Dicky, if I succeed in taking better pictures I'll do. Gary, it comes from openclipart, so it's free to use Andy, yep, I wouldn't like to be on the wrong side of that bayonet either Thanks for all the positive comments

Thanks, Wouters I'm thinking about some changes to the base, I don't like the stone colour, it's too even... |

After finishing Pyotr I've had the feeling tha base had to be improved. So I tried to make it better: As always ACW |
