I recently finished this bad boy for the Stoke show. He came fourth which is a polite way of saying best of the rest and you get sod all.  So moving on I'm up to this point with the tiger soldier . upload pictureI'm looking forward to getting some detail on this one. Cheers for looking in peeps.

Ok, added the green eyes, painted the white areas in light flesh for white, put a dusting of yellow on the chest plate and decided to do the tummy whit like the real thing. I think I'm going for a tigerstripe cammo markings.  Cheers for looking in as always.

Not alot done tonight, just added another coat on the grey and white and a couple of markings above the eyes. I've decided on the camo so I'll be on with that tomorrow.  Oh, and I started on his flight pack thingy

Paul, It's a tamiya multi clamp thingy. It was about a tenner from my not so local hobby shop. It is a handy bit of kit.

Ok, I layer some shadows down with the orange and added some highlights and added the silver ready for the lights.  Strengthening the light flesh ready for the camo.  I added some shadows to the helmet but I don't think you could tell from the picks.  And as I snapped his arm trying to straighten the warped arm, a little scratbuilding.
