    Hi,
    here is my latest 1/16th scale figure. Alpine head by Mike Good, rest is schratchbuild.
    He is inspired by the PzAbt 208 officers on Northern Italy summer 1944.

    I don't see anything on this figure that would warrant criticism. You did a fine job in both sculpt and paint. He looks quite the proud wearer of the PAB.

    Superb work Pekka!

    That is very nice, especially the painting of the face, that is brilliant.


    Cheer's,
    Jeff.

    That is a great head by Mike
    The body and pose is one that I like very much
    You have done a great job
    The only thing I would say and it could be just the pic but a little hightlighting or slight colour variations on the back of neck would be nice

    I actually thought this was a new alpine figure!

    Thank you very much for your positive comments. Maybe I have now courage to take this figure to the World Expo in Stresa, Italy :)

    Hi!

    Lovely conversion. The guy seems the new 007 ;)

    I think this is a deceptively difficult pose to get right, but you pulled it off, nice job.
    Brilliant job on the head and goggles.

    Few comments: Looks like you used an airbrush; to my taste it looks a bit too smooth in some areas, such as pants and shoes.
    Maybe you can add some dark outlining of the soles of the shoes (to add contrast), and add some thin brown/sandy tones to the pants (to add some dirt and colour variation)?

    Cheers and have fun in Stresa!
