thanks irish.  face prob needs more work.  camera seems to make it looks a lot worse than in real life.  i will be touching the skin up generally as i filled some rather nasty joints on the hands with a bit of milliput yesterday.  can you offer any advice on whether to turn the base into a diorama?  seems a bit daunting to me, just wanted something to display him on.  i'll let you into a secret....... the base started as a 1/35 fence to hide my sdkfz 251 behind on a diorama wip.  i couldn't believe how badly i misjudged it scale-wise.  so it turned into a bridge for the 251.  then i happened to put herr schmidt on and it seemed to look right.  happy accident?
