    I think this looks great as is especially given the scale. Could you do something to make it better? Perhaps, but it wouldn't necessarily be better, just different. You could probably of pushed the contrast just a bit more to give features more depth and or maybe tried to simulate some texture to the uniform. If I remember correctly it was made in a herringbone like twill, so some faint vertical lines to represent this weave in the material would add another dimension. Nonetheless you have done another fine looking figure (y)! I'm curious too as to what others may think.

    I particularly like the stitching on the magazine pouches and the black leather.

    Hi Konstantin, I hope that you are proud of this figure because it is a fine job (y) . If I was to offer any feedback you could add some more"dirt" around the legs & knees to help tie it to the good job on the boots. Also for me the sling on the MP40 doesn't look like it is being affected by gravity in the normal way. It should hang more "slack" in my opinion to seem more real - but I'm certainly not an expert on MP40 slings :) .

    Thanks friends.
    Andrew, I made a strap on the MP of a strip of genuine leather and it turned out a bit tight.;)
