Marc ... Thanks

Stu! ... Yeah I like the beret best

Some work on the lower half done, still loads to do

Some tweaks on the lower half still to do, the Dennison is ready for some camo colours

Very smooth Mark

Gordy ... Cheers!

Dennison is starting to come together .....

Great work mark so far,i like the dennison colours,it's really pulling everything together now,look forward to the next pictures.

Brian

Superb mark, coming together very nicely indeed. Your best para yet

Stu

I'm stunned by the dennison Mark. Absolutely perfect colouring and pattern.

Please share your mixes! They must be the Definitive Mix for this camo.

Cheers,
Adrian

Looking good Mark,
Andy

I love the "brush stroke" effect on the Denison (it's Denison, not "Dennison" BTW ). It's captured it very nicely. That pattern is much harder to do than it looks.

Brian ... Many thanks, update later today

Stu ... Glad you think so. I must admit over the last couple of figures it seems to flow a bit more than it did. Practice pays off eh?

Adrian ... Thank you mixes below...

Carl ... Thanks mate

Andy ... Many thanks

Harry ... Thank you! Yes Denison .. ( spelling is not a strong point with me ) the design is actually not too difficult with good reference ... still a long winded process mind


A quick break down of the colours ( which are exactly the same as the Para Officer I did for Stu last year http://www.planetfigure.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35329&page=2 ) for the Denison base fabric

Low ... AV Burnt Umber
Mid .... AV English Uniform
High ... Mid plus AV Light Flesh

Then the swirls are done with..

First the brown was laid down using AV Mahogany Sand + AV Burnt Umber at 2:1 diluted at 3:1 with a measure of flow enhancer to allow for even glazing.

Then the greens were laid down using AV Luft. Cam. Green + AV USA Olive Drab at 2:1 diluted at 3:1 again with a measure of flow enhancer.

I have since gone on to highlighting with a very diluted base fabric colour ( AV English Uniform plus AV Light Flesh at 1:1 ) and dropping some stronger shadows in with GW Gryphon Sepia ...

I will post some pictures shortly

Progress ... There are one or two bits I need to sort/soften but this fellow is approaching the finish I think

Sterling job mate, you have that denison pattern cracked now, must be all that practice .
Enjoyed watching this, another one of your WIP, I am actually starting to grasp this acrylic thing now by watching your painting.

Cheers mate

Steve

Cheers Steve!

Leathery bits .....

and stuff touched up somewhat.

Carl ... Cheers ... I'm still undecided on which head to use

The figure is finished bar some weathering ... base is now mostly finished on construction so paint next

Excellent paintwork, especially the camo!

Cheers,
Marcel.
