This is a classic little figure and isn't as easy to paint as it looks but you've done a really top class job Gunther.

Very great work ! As the other said this is a classic in the WW2 figures market. But yours is simply the best painted version I've ever seen! I love the face, looks very accurate. What colours did you use to paint such skin tone ?
