Been working on this guy to eventually go with my Meng 'Shilka' (once completed that is). Face painted with Vallejo;

Spent an enjoyable couple of hours last night painting his trousers and weathering his jacket. Trousers all painted with Tamiya acrylics. The jacket was weathered with layered washes of dark green (very thin washes – more like dirty water), and highlighted with further light washes of original colour mixed with some buff/white, takes time to build up, but worth it in the end. To add general grime and darker shadows I used very thin washes of Tamiya Smoke. Tamiya Smoke was also painted over the trousers to take the brightness away. Box art shows them as nice and bright, but can’t believe they would be that clean , even after 10 minutes. Need to add the camo colours to his chest, paint the shemagh and sort out the ammunition pouches.
