Two Figure's and Multiple Head's WIP

Hello Everyone,

I have painted five figures as of this writing and I wanted to post a WIP of two figures with one of them being an Alpine Miniatures German Wermacht Infantry Officer.

 The second figure is a TANK DAK Tank Commander.

I will also be practicing painting heads and will be painting four Ultra Cast German Tank Crewman

And one Warrior Skelton Head just for fun:

The purpose of the exercise is to ensure I fill in the missing gaps on German Wermacht and DAK uniform colors and equipment and also to improve my head and face painting.  I will be using Vallejo Model Color Acrylics paints only and to assist with people providing guidance and color choices here is my present Model Color paint inventory:

Here are the results of my online studies of color choices for German uniforms and equipment:

As you can see I have already base coated all the figures and am ready to start painting the faces with at least two basecoats of Flat Flesh.  I am not opposed to people who favor oils providing comment and suggestions.  I just want to get comfortable with Acrylic figure painting first before I jump medium.  J

Thanks in advance for your support and commentary.
