Modern british tank crew

    Hello folks,
    I would like to post some pictures about a couple of 1/35 figures modeled and painted to ride this vehicle. The figures are mainly modeled with Milliput and painted with acrylics. The heads and hands are from Hornet. I've tried to reproduce the modern (1995) British DPM pattern.
    Any comment, good or bad, is welcome!

    That is a sharp looking crew! Excellent job on the DPM, especially so because of the scale! (y)

    Hi,
    As I promised here is the color table:
    All the colors are Vallejo Model color

    light color:
    base: desert yellow 977 50% + bonewhite (Vallejo game color) 50%
    lights: base + bonewhite

    Green:
    base: military green 975 80% + sunny skintone 845 10% + olive green 967 10%
    lights: base + basic skintone 815

    brown:
    base: burnt umber 941 70% + flat brown 984 25%
    lights: base + bonewhite (Vallejo game color)

    black:
    base: german grey 995
    lights: base + bonewhite (Vallejo game color)

    For the shirt and pants I added basic skintone 815 or iraqui sand 819 to the base colors and for the light color I used only bonewhite. This is because in the pictures I saw this parts more worn than the vest.

    I hope be useful.
    Cheers!
