Hi all!
I present my first work at 1/10 scale, MG42 Gunner, Totenkopf Division, Kharkov 1943 by Life Miniatures. Seems to be not so bad, tried as much as I could. I will be glad to get your feedback.:happy:

Dmldk if this scale is new to you then you have a great eye and finish for large scale so keep going at it. I have done this bust myself back in 2020 and I found it to be a superb casting .
If I had and negative points it would be don't be sucked into the browns being dominant in the leather equipment, yes the black did wear through on original equipment but never to show it as brown or if you actually meant for it to be brown well that's wrong as only the Luftwaffe wore any brown leather equipment and all SS would be issued black....they were an elite unit after all and nothing but the best correct would do

Thank you very much) I didn't delve so much into the actual colour, as I painted from the available paintings of this bust on the internet...just even the boxart itself had a brown colour, so I copied it)
Thank you for the feedback)
