nice too Vlad
is it a bandana under the helmet ?

Yes it's a bandana.
Of course it's not a part of regular uniform, but in our case some of soldiers use bandanas or different kinds of 'civil' dress. It could be allowed sometimes especially for reservists. Once I even heared about guys wearing 'telnyashka' - a stripped undershirt of russian Airborne and Navy. Probably they were repatriants from former USSR.

Vlad - Is the Cernit the kinda mauve colored bit? I'm curious and might try some. It's a one-piece heat - dry epoxy, isn't it? How does it's consistency compare to Super Sculpey? I'd like to find something much denser than Super Sculpey or even SS grey firm.
Marvelous sculpting - as always! Your range of subject is great and I've never seen one of your compositions that I didn't like.
All the best,
Dan

Guy & Steve & Dan - thank you for your interest for this item.
So Dan - this especially model is done of Cernit Doll Collection media. Only a helmet is of Apoxy Clay. There are various colours in Cernit Doll Collection half-a-kilo bulks - look here: http://www.kjpcrafts.com/cernitdollclay.htm
I have two bulks - nougat (yammy!) and bisquit so I combine the colours between them when it is necessary. I feel myself comfortably when different parts have a different colours - at least I know where I can disassemble the model and where I can't.
Cernit is not an epoxy. Correctly it sounds like a clay - the same as Super Sculpey and other staffs you need to bake. If to compare CDC to SS so Cernit is much better for me: it is smoother and softer. The main difference you'll see after a baking - it's firm and at the same time little bit flexible. BUT! It is obviously not the best one - it tends to be very sensitive to baking temperature. When overheated it could crack or to have micro-cracks. And when underheated - it never become firm enough.
I still never tried a Grey Firm Super Sculpey - so I can't compare here. It's only a matter of time and one visit to Tel-Aviv of course. And for me Premo is the best one of polymer clays.
Probably I'm not understanding appropriately what do you mean as 'much denser'. When I need something really dense (Really Firm Staff) I use epoxy putties - that's it.

Definitely one of the under represented armed services in the world, in the figure area.
