Completed Critique Royal Marine 200mm Marksman Mtp

[Gellso]

This is the completed figure of Mitches Military Models 200mm Marine.

MTP takes an absolute age on a 200 mm figure but I learnt loads from doing it.

Great work and a superb finish on a figure I would not dare to tackle, you have done the figure proud
Do not mean to derail thread and knowing the RSM of 40 Cdo this needs to be made bronze as already I am getting asked who does modern RM.
I am in the process of tracking down the guy Moz used as the basis, this is a breathtaking piece and with Gordon, nicer men you will not meet.
Gellso, if ok I will send him some images of your piece, thank you but please let me know if ok.
Brilliant and best wishes, I will pass on all requests Gordon

Great work Gellso. I like it. I think the third photo do more justice to your work. (Better without flash)

Brilliant rendition of MTP (just compared it to my own).
Did you manage to paint 'straight from the tube' or did you have to custom mix colours?

Thanks Andrew, and everyone else for the kind words and kudos.
The next figure will be finishing the 200mm SAS Task Force Black soldier. Done in American Tir-colour camo.......much easier than MTP!
Cheers,

Hi Pops,
Thanks for the kind words.

These are the colours for camo in the link below. Next time I would just use German camo black for the really dark splashes or maybe even lighten it a wee bit.

Hi Edorta,
Thanks mate. I agree, For the figure the camo has a green tinge which seems closest to the last pic. Just wanted to put it in to give an idea of what it's like for real.

Cheers,
Grant

Don't know nothing about the modern warfare, weapons and clothing.
But you have done some amazing job on this guy.

I've uploaded an A4 sample from my MTP trousers for you. This is 'as is' without any colour correction. Hope this helps anyone wanting to have a go... I've got the 1/16th sniper to try it on when work permits...

Excellent work grant, but you know I like it.
