I got enough parts to do that one! 
I'll post this here, there's figures for both Lulubelle and the Carolina Lee.
I don't know why I have such a problem with consistency painting faces. There's a couple in here that i have no problem with, couple just look weird. I hope my African sergeant major Tambul doesn't look too ...black face?
The civilian on the far left really is just sculpted funny. His hands are huge.

I think it comes down to the detail in the sculpting. I have found that with Tamiya v Dragon etc. Especially with faces and clothing detail - it needs to be 3D but not to much.
Looks like @mike walsh did a drive by on the website.

I get it, figures are a struggle.
The one on the left is what came with the figure. Details are light on this guy. struggling with his lips. Sorry about the focus...but the one in the middle has my vote in person but looking at this photo the guy on the right looks better in this photo.
Thanks, not that impressive and even worse in person.

Figured out my problem with painting faces.
Just had to use the ol' Cap'o'matic holder instead of a pallet. Even ended up using the kit head for the guy in the tanker coveralls.

....Looking better with each step. In the end there is only so much you can do with poor sculpting.
Thanks Ian, I'm moving on from their faces and focusing on uniforms now. I plan on mounting LuluBelle in some sand today!

Excellent! good luck. The key is to be as subtle as possible and just try to enjoy it like its a model itself.
And not take 10 years to do it...
