WIP Critique Alpine AFV crew 1/35th.

[housecarl]

This is the 1st of the Alpine US AFV crew, for some reason the highlights look chalky in the photos. I think the large shadow on the back of the jacket needs lightening. All in Vallejo, with an Archer formation patch.

Great job Carl. What color sdid you use for the flesh?

Thanks for taking the time to comment. The flesh is Vallejo 876 Brown Sand, highs with 918 Ivory, shaded with Panzer Aces 312 Leather belt. Then washes of 137 Cavalry Brown, for the red bits.
Cheers,
Carl.

Hi Carl - I think he's come out very well indeed and would very much suit an addition to some armour, flesh tones are spot on - my rule of thumb with medium colours such as greens/drabs and grays is not to highlight too much, it can 'spoil' the colour.IMO

Very nice Carl...

looks fine to me. I like the blending of the colors. Very convincing.

 

[Andrew Craft]

Looks great Carl, the highlights and shadows look fine.

Thanks a lot chaps. I was hoping to get the diorama finished for tomorrow, but I think I'll struggle. I'll bring him and his mate anyway.
