200mm Panzergrenadier

Thank you Sdkfz and Plymonkey!  Ive seen photos of soldiers wearing ammo belts both ways too, and never gave much thought about it.

Outstanding work!

There's only something about the teeth that looks strange, I can't exactly say what; maybe the black in between.

Excellent painting. That face looks so real. How did you get that 5 O'clock shadow effect?I'm very impressed.

Thanks again for the kind comments. When painting faces, I start with a dark flesh color and do successive washes with lighter colors to give the face life. With the five-oclock shadow, I use washes of german blue grey (Vallejo acrylics) to give him the unshaven look. His teeth do look a bit funny and I think Ill tone down that some so they dont have so much contrast.
