    I think it looks ok so far... added a bit of texture to the grenade bags and the satchel..

    The Khaki...

    Base ..........Burnt umber
    Mid .......... English Uniform
    High ..........English Uniform and Stone Grey 1:1
    2nd High... English Uniform and Stone Grey and Light flesh 2:2:1
    Final high... High English Uniform and Stone Grey and Light flesh 1:1:2

    The first three layers were sprayed on.

    Probably a bit involved but I wanted to get it looking a bit washed out..

    Many thanks chaps!

    An update tomoz but found this article on our man and it includes repros of his Service and casualty forms :)

    The man was a true hero but it is strange no mention of gallantry awards. Maybe this is a reflection on his unconventional behaviour.

    Peter he seems to have lost every chance of medals due to his conduct!

    Anyhoo, I have almost finished the tiny vignette inside the helmet!
    There is a lovely wrist watch to paint next and then I will use some well thinned Vallejo Smoke to add some shadowing and hopefully pull it all together :)
