    Howdy all,
    The day I first laid my eyes on this offering by Life Miniatures it was here on Planet Figure, and I immediately knew that I just had to get one. Today I pretty much finished it, save for some touch ups here and there and a base nameplate that still needs to be made up.

    Thanks are in order to Kaz, who answered an assembly question that I had, and to Dave of 'Las Cavalry' that sent me this fine little sculpt as soon as it became available. Thanks guys!

    Joe

    That is terrific paintwork Joe, top notch! Very nice and smooth skintones, and I like the helmet very much as well.

    Hi Joe,

    Super effort on this one too mate.
    Especially like the "light" you've got coming from above, very effective colour toning.
    Helmet is good looking colour palette too.

    Only suggestion I'd make would be PPSH looks newer than the soldier's other kit.
    Maybe a little extra chipping & wear on barrel guard may help?

    Thanks for sharing mate!
    An inspiring piece.

    Thanks Adrian! I appreciate your comments. Did you ever figure out what critter was growing on your BAR gunner?

    Thanks Scott! Something I didn't mention was that this was the first time I used some Jo Sonja paints along with the Andrea and Vallejos' on the flesh tones. I'm really liking them!

    Thank you Mike! You know the funny thing is that I had toned down the wear I originally put on the PPSH by going over with several dark washes. I guess I went too far. No worries, I'll go back and put in a little more wear and tear.
