Hello,
Work is in progress for the face and the shirt, I made a mistake on the collar of the shirt, white and not blue!
I just start the paint job on the ammo belt.

Hi Emilie,

Looks good , like the leather bandolier and the shirt colour , possibly less dark under the eyes but that's only my view ....you have certainly done a nice job ....like Mark following your Joan!

Thanks for sharing
