Another fantastic job... each new figure is better than the last. You did a great job on the skintone. Maybe u could share your mix of vallejos for this tone ( I have a couple of black GIs from Veit Nam to paint soon).

As always, great job

Colin

Hey Colin,thanks for your kind words.
I originally used for the skin base:
Vallejo chocolate brown and a dab of german camo black/brown,but i realized it was too dark when i start doing my highlights.
so i made up another mix : vallejo Burnt umber and a dab of flat brown.
Lights added english uniform,shadows added German camo black/brown.
washes with vallejo brown wash.
Pm me if you have any more questions,i'll be more than happy to help.
cheers
