Here are two figures I recently finished. The first is a 200mm Mitches Military Models 82 Airborne. The second is a Forgeworld Perturabo (about 65-70mm for the figure). Painted both with acrylics and some oils here and there.... Tweaked the film setting for the first image of the trooper...

Needs some arms... something's missing...

Wow!

Thanks! The jacket was painted with a combination of scale 75 Brown Leather, Red Leather and Orange Leather. I added black and Vallejo Orange Brown. The collar was Vallejo Earth and Sunny Skintone, shade with black and some Andrea Ink.

Hello everyone Young Miniatures RAF Bomber Pilot. Painted with acrylics- Jo Sonja and Vallejo, Scale 75. I did use some oils on the helmet. I hope you like it. Matt

Hi everyone He is the Alpine Miniatures 101 Airborne kit that was released a short time ago. Very nice kit, with a choice of heads. I decided to use the plain netted helmet. Painted with acrylics ( I did use oils for the stock on the M1 Carbine) Matt

I painted this bust a while back.... I was photographing my latest project and thought I would re-shoot some pictures. I like these better than the originals. Matt

The grips on the pistol are not wood- John Wayne used he same Colt pistol for most of his Western movies- it had a yellowish colored grip- called "calalin". It was some kind of hard plastic. I used a butterscotch color for those.

Simple flesh mix: Vallejo Brown Sand, Burnt Cad Red, and Sunny Skintone (Basic Flesh too). A little Jo Sonja Burnt Sienna, plus Raw Umber and black added for shadows. I used a touch of Jo Sonja Brown Madder for some color in the cheeks. Iraqui Sand and US Field Drab for the coat.

Here is the Nuts Planet Captain Barbossa bust. All acrylics... Thanks for looking

I used Vallejo German Field Grey and Olive Grey mixed together. #830, 888, and 886 highlights. Sunny Skintone for highlights works good too. Add black for shadows.

Thanks!!

Here is my version of the 101 Airborne bust the Young Miniatures just released. Thanks for looking. Mostly acrylics except for washes for the bazooka and helmet. Matt

Try a bust. Like Alex said, a subject you like. Keep it simple so you're not overwhelmed at first by the complexity. A Young Miniature bust is a good choice.... minimal cleanup, easy to paint. 1/10 scale will allow you to understand lights and shadows, and painting eyeballs that you can...
