France 44 tankers break up the boredom

he is great , well done Alan, real like how you are able to paint in the crosses

what color did you use for the uniform ? please, as you can real see the difference between the black off the belt

 

[Alan 45]

Thanks folks I appreciate that

Moni the uniform is matt black and the belt in gloss black

Once I've painted the uniform in black I dry brush it lightly with dust grey so you can see the crease folds

Update , I've stated the base , it's only a basic one but will have trees and bits of long grass in areas , the wall is wills but I added the bricks using balsa to give it a more interesting look

 

[Polux]

Looking very good so far Alan!

With all the trees, figures and vehicles will turn a full diorama

I like it!

 

[monica]

good start on the base looking forward to seeing more off it ,

 

[noble]

Nice figures and nice keel wagon, like the wall section. This is coming along nicely
