Very nice! His skin tone shows how cold he is.  well, can't wait to see the final version!!

Hey guys, thanks for the comments.  I used acrylic paints and then some final details on the face were added with pencil crayon such as beard stuble and wrinkles at the sides of the eye.  The helmet was first sprayed with field grey and then dry brushed white to give a rough look to it.  After looking at some photo reference of white-washed helmets I went pack with a fine brush and field grey to pick out some worn spots and specks.  Artificial snow is in the mail so maybe a couple weeks before it's all finished.

That's awesome! Please share how you have painted the face.
The helmet is also very realistic, I would love to know how you painted it.

jgeratic1 -  looks very good so far, can't wait to see the finish model.  What paints did you use.

 

That's looking splended. Off to an excellent start. Can't wait to see the finished piece.

You could use baking soda for snow, though it absorbs moisture like a sponge, and will aquire a mildew smell, eventually.Glass beads are another option. That's what they used to use to make artificial snow with when I was a kid.

OMG!! the face is done sooo well i can swear it almost felt real!!  and a great job pulling that hardest-to-paint white uniform.  props to you!
