First of all thanks so mcuh for your kind words!

I'm not sure we are going to have any SBS this time, just "very frequent" updates as I can't stop painting this great bust!

Anyway, keep on following, you never know! ;-)

Ciao a tutti,

Thing with the bust are progressing, and I love so much to paint this little gem.

Main body is almost done, I do need to paint the various patches, tide up the parachute webbing, painting the chest cross straps and doing the various d-rings and webbing buckles.

Then I need to start painting the secondary front parachute and the main back one.

Hope you like it, as usual any comment is more than appreciated.

Ciao

Ciao,

Slowly but steadily I'm keep on painting this little gem.

The secondary parachute is finished as well as all the metallic parts and the US flag on the right shoulder.

Rest of the patches and the primary parachute have to be done.

I hope to finish this in time for the World Expo!

Please let me know what you think.

Very, very nice. All the details are awesome and the flesh tones are great. Love the wood grain on the rifle butt. Also like the shading on his uniform, not overdone.
Great work,
Ben
