German U-boat Crew, Young Miniatures 1/10

[Stelios Demiras]

Dear friends,
After presenting German U-Boat Crew bust by Christos Panagiotopoulos in SMH03, FM03, I couldn't help it but make one of my own! After many years I managed to finish a model in such a short time (1 week). Most of my other projects are half-finished due to many obligations. I hope that this opens a new road for my favorite hobby and that I will complete more projects.

It is all painted with Vallejo Acrylics. I used to paint with oils, but I decided to give it a try for more quick results and I didn't regret it at all.

So, what do you think?

Hi Stelios

Very clean painting. My sinceere congratulations if this is your first figure painted in acrylics. But in my humble opinion maybe you should have taken the shading and highlighting a bit further.

Still, nice work.

Hi Johan,
Thank you for your comment. It is my first finished figure in acrylics. I guess you are right about the contrast.

It's pretty good Stelios, on a positive note it gives you a good idea what to do on the next one. Looking forward to seeing it.

Looking good, but a bit monochrome. You could now use oils to shade and weather and spice it up a bit

Hi Stelios ,

For your 1st bust this is a good start ...definately need to push the shading and highlighting IMO ..looking forward to seeing the next one from you.

Nice work on the beard and the cap
