WIP Critique 101st Airborne - Normandy 1944 - Mitches Military Models 120 mm

[Sturm Grenadier]

Hello Vaux, Here is a photo of General Taylor wearing the flag patch:

I don't know when this picture was taken, but there it is. Of course, Generals wore what they wanted, Patton, comes to mind. I wouldn't worry about the flag patch, some may have worn it, others may not have. It certainly doesn't take away the outstanding painting so far. Will follow this one. Regards, SG

This is Taylor at the start of 'Market Garden'. Note that he's wearing the recently issued M-43 Field Jacket and not the M-42 Jump Jacket. As Sturm Grenadier pointed out, you nonetheless have an awesome job going !!

Hello Vaux, Agree with Scott, the khaki looks great. I particularly like the way you have done the 45, shoulder holster, and 30 cal., all very realistic. Good luck the rest of the way. Regards, SG

I love the way how this is turning out. Very well painted.

 

[Vaux]

Thanks Piotrec!!

More pics!!

It is less to finish!

 

[Ferris]

Nice, like it a lot. You get very smooth transitions. Are you using an airbrush or is it all done by hand?

Adrian

 

[Vaux]

Thanks Ferris.
I tend to use the airbrush for larger areas, a general overhead lights and shadows and then end with a brush.
To use small parts brush.

Give strength to your paratrooper

Greetings friend!

Hi there, that is looking excellent as you said you start with an airbrush, can i ask what paint you use and what are your base colours, roy.
