biffa, welcome back to the fig world ... even if for the moment. I'm not too big into German builds but, like Huxy's ... your's is well on it's way. Your 1/35 figs look good too. Nice work!...

Is there no end to your talent Ron

Thank you guys for the kind words im not sure about talent i have no real method when doing these i just fumble along until it looks ok to me and thats what i did with this one and must admit i am quite pleased with him he wasnt the easiest to do because of lack of any real facial features i think but as i said i am pleased, i threw together a small base for him and here he is hope he meets your approval also.

Wow... this looks amazing. The dirt on his knees and everywhere... looks like real dirt.

Very well done- love the base- what kind of vegitation did you use? Looks like some of the real deal that's been dryed up. The only issue I have is his back foot looks too blended into the ground, like it's attached.

Not really a big issue, if you gave it a little bit of a dark shadding wash around the boot/ground seam I think that'd really make it pop, but just my 2 cents

Woah.. This went quick! 

Not only are you waaaayyy quicker than me, but you are waaayyyy better aswell!

Excellent work! Really very well done!  And I'm glad my work could inspire you

Only thing I can point out is the MG..  It looks a bit plastic.. And greyish..

Thanks for the feedback guys the problem with the boots/dirt and and MG are both camera problems the camera tends to blend the dirt on the floor and boots together and it cant seem to distinguish them apart but in reality it doesnt look as bad same with the mg i have got a slightly better camera and a tripod now hopfully i can improve on the pics but all points were taken and looked at and appreciated, thanks.

Ron,

I love how this looks, a real winner.

Just my worth, the MG looks like it is slipping off his shoulder.  With the weight of a squad weapon like that, I'd be carrying it further up, closer to his neck ?
