WIP Critique Dak Bust (young Miniatures)

[Tarracus]

Hello good people.
This is what I'm currently working on. Flesh on oils, except hair and lips . The rest on acrylics. I'll add an oil filter on the jacket shadows to gain some tone variations when I finish with acrylics.
Still to add the K98 and helmet chin straps (which, as usual, I've lost )
All comments/criticisms welcome

Wonderful work Gerard. I wouldnt worry about the missing chin strap, I am sure even the DAK didnt wear them all the time.

Hello Gerard, The face looks fantastic. Like the worn effect on the helmet. The colors, highlights, and shadows, of the D.A.K. tunic, are exceptionably well done. Looking forward to seeing your final touches on this one Gerard. Regards, SG

You may think so but not really. Perhaps you are just an awesome photographer

Take the compliment and run.

Gerard, it's a masterpiece. Better than the box art, and that's saying something.
