Hello
This figure is made by Jeffshui.
I've started painting the black panzer uniform.
To add more visual interest, I decided to paint the jacket and trousers using different shades of black.
I've highlighted the jacket using sunny skintone and shaded it by adding more black to the base mix.
I used English Uniform for highlighting the trousers, and base + Dark Prussian Blue for the shades.

I would appreciate hearing your opinion on the final result.

Hi Simon,
I'm guessing it's just the photos but the trousers look like field grey and the jacket looks like a light blue grey and not a shade of black.

However, the shading looks excellent and you've really made a great job of blending it with no hard edges.

Maybe changing the settings on your camera would give a truer picture of the actual colour.

Following with interest,

My camera sucks. I know this for sure

I've tried editing the previous pictures so they will reflect the true shades of the figure.
Hope this time they look better ...

Wonderful and good beginning for this beauty of Jeff

The figure is complete!

I think your camera doesn't let see your work.
It looks overall very flat. I can see contrast, but it is not enough. The camera does tricks with you.

Yep I know - my camera sucks.
I'll try shooting again in daylight ..

Excellent, I especially like the subtle weathering on his boots d

Meant to be a thumbs up, stupid iPad
