One of my favourite poses this time – a really tense ‘advance to contact’ look. This figure is still from the first wave of Late War Americans, but I have the second wave (and some extra goodies) due in the post any day.
Sorry but lots of poses with this one. All sorts of additional kit makes this quite an interesting task to paint.
Paul has also shared early pics of the Kreigsmarine crew for the Empress U-Boat this weekend. Suddenly I find myself gripped by a strong urge to watch Das Boot again …
Simply stunning! Paul really is one of the best sculptors around and your painting is the icing on the cake.

Excellent paint job. The skin turned out really well and overall very smooth transitions.

I’ve really got to know what you used for the wood grain. The color matches my ’45 M1 Garand so perfectly.

Vallejo Flat Brown with Orange Brown/Flat Brown mid-tone and pure Orange Brown for highlights and grain. Thanks for the comment! 🙂
