Managed to get this bad boy after years of looking. It's a very challenging piece with loads of different techniques needed.
I thought I'd post the top half so far showing the fur collar.

Base of german camo biege, some english uniform washed selectively and german camo black washed selectively.


Dry brushed with some German camo beige:


Highlighted with english uniform with white added.

Well done and crisp, Grant
I'm looking forward to seeing this one progress!

Excellent start Grant.
A fur expression is very cool.
I'm looking forward to progress.

Excellent painting Grant

Nice one Grant, got a feeling this will be at Perth in April. Following your progress. Nice sbs on the boots by the way.

P.S. The bases are perfect m8.

Great start Grant, I got this one myself recently so look forward to updates!

Very nice paint job!!!

Now with head and woollen textured legs

The face is done and just need to weather and metalize the helmet rim.
I changed his tunic to a grey colour as the field grey it was before just looked like it merged into the long coat.
The ribbons, collar tabs, epaulettes and the iron cross, even in 200mm was a real challenge. I haven't strained my eyes so much since I watched Cindy Crawfords workout video!

The longcoat was treated with 3m photomount (Thanks Carl) to try and give a woollen texture as the coat was extremely smooth.
Just realised this German is in the ideal position for doing "The Running man" dance move! Utah Saints anyone?

he is looking really nice and will be just awesome when finished.

Love that texture that's a paint sponge

Perfect touch with the reddened nose! RRRiiiiicola!

Very nice stuff mate, like the red nose from the cold, well done - I am busy with a Panzer Officer bust and a 120mm panzer officer figure which I will post soon.Great stuff !!

Looking very Nice Grant!

Keep it coming

Hi Grant, love this! the fur is bang on and the texture on the great coat looks fantastic, watching with envy. Les
