Lookin good manny. The guy on the left (peiper?), his face looks a little yellow or orangey, that might be the lighting conditions, but still really impressive figures. Have you thought about doing a figure tutorial?

I LOVE THOSE!!!!!!!!!!! how on earth did you paint that sweet camouflage and those awesome faces, I was wondering because I am planing a diorama with probably no less than 10-12 figures all would be German save two. Any help would be great.

Thanks, Jim
