Chris ,

Like the way you did the eye area less sunburnt ..nice effect , wings look good

Have you done the lips yet?

Goggles ...a real good addition but not too keen on them personally ( probably tone down the lens colour a bit ) but see what your aiming at

Thanks for sharing

Looking great what colours did you use for the tunic

 

[taff edwards]

Hi mate
I used
Citadel Zandri Dust
Tamiya Buff xF-57
Tamiya Khaki XF-49
Used white mixed up with main colours
To high light and a wash of dark brown for filters around pockets and creases
Hope that helps mate
Chris

 

[montythefirst]

what ratios did you use those colours in ?

 

[taff edwards]

Pro dominantly more the Zandri dust with the Tamiiya Buff to give the colour of worn Desert uniform
That in a way is the beauty of that theatre of operations your pallet in many ways is free
