CTA ENTRY-ReconRon-6th Army Oberfeldwebel

well folks, With the on going freezing weather around here it's hard to do some modeling for me.
Working in a cold,moist open room at work, has some nasty effects on my joints.
Sometimes it's even hard to bend my fingers...so I have to work in baby-steps to get this one done. :(

This is what I got so far,using 'old school' painting,meaning the use of enamels and oils and some shadows and highlights;

Yep,...forgot to remove the seam on the hand [it's on the got to do list]

Weird thing is the molded on slings for the SubMachineGun and the binoculars,still have to connect a piece of sling to the binoculars.

Still have to do some fixing on my Oberfeldwebel,and the use of some p p p pigments.
So wish me good luck,folks.

Greetings,Ron.

Oh,almost forgot to mention that I used a PIGMENT WASH at the boots and helmet,and some dry pigments at the uniform.

This build is exempt from the drawing as well

Greetings,Ron.
