Chaps I thank you all very kindly for the grand comments . Today I played around with the commander figure, nothing much as you'll only see the top of him later. But I did think I can still use him to practice on. The base colours are on, tomorrow will get some fine tuning .

You're good at figure painting Paul, do not underestimate yourself. The commander looks better with the paint on.

Well then, I had a good bench session today . The figure was stripped and repainted, the reason for that was that after I added a matt coat he went all shiny . I think the oils weren't quite dry and I added the acrylic matt too early. Oh well, lesson learned. Anyhow he is now finished and inside his permanent new home . The vehicle received a filter from MIG Productions, Grey for Yellow Sand. this was done on Wednesday and it toned the stark colours down nicely. Today I added a shed load of chips using oils and acrylics. Maybe tomorrow I can a matt coat, but I'll test the oils first to make sure they are really dry .

Looking good but is it just me that thinks the commander is saying "get in there my son!"

Excellent, Paul! Glad your refinish of the figure went well. You know, with the present box vacancy in the StuG stack, should be room for the new Miniart one in the "New Things" thread.
