This is my new project, it’s a AfrikaKorps Feldarmerie. Attached are the rough composition of the 3D pose and the initial sketch. Will post more WIP images soon.

Hi FlaBtl (Sfl) 606,

Haven't decide on the scale but likely to be in larger scale as I hope to put in more details to the figure. Working on the head and the pith helmet at the moment, should be able to post some images tomorrow.

Attached are the images of the head and the pith helmet, always prefer to start with the head first. Further details will be added ( head and helmet ) but will be working on the body next.

Very nice Vince. Great job on the helmet. I'm also in the early stages of a figure and find this is the most important part. Fortunately making corrections digitally is easier than scraping off putty or having to reposition a part(s) of your armature.
 
Thanks garyjd, yeah, digital media is more forgiving than regular putty :) , Weird times to be an artist, haven't use a physical brush to do any drawing/ illustrations for the last 20+ years.
 
Just come up with the arms, hands and the Winkerkelle. Cuffbands are added yet and should be able to get it done next.

Hi CLASSICVS,

Thanks for your comment, it's always good to have input to help improving the model. Not sure if it's the view angle that gives the impression the rim is having equal width all round. The rear is actually longer than the front. May be it will help to make a bit more longer still, will work on it with the next update.
