USMC The Pacific

[Macca G]

The old version of Young Miniatures US Marine WW2. Painted in acrylics.
I wanted to create the look of a worn-out Marine coming off a prolonged period on the line, hence the faded uniform.

You did a wonderful job on the uniform and helmet cover. Getting those tiny vertical lines on the blouse (we who are US Marines refer to that as a Utility shirt) is incredible and demonstrates that you did not take the easy road. Well done. BTW, my USMC vintage is Vietnam, Cyprus and Lebanon (65-79)

Very good work Macca, superb. If you allow me a comment, I see the below eye line a bit bold for my taste.
