    Hi all, This gonna be my next figure. This figure is out of my style, but it gonna be a work for a good friend. My first camo pattern so I´ll try to do the best.
    With this figure I´d like to pay tribute to all these men who are deployed there far from their families and in all parts around the world accomplishing a mission. I know well it is very hard. They are doing a good job. (y)

    Well, the figure:
    REsin kit in 54mm scale. Good quality.

    Question,
    Isn't the US patch on the right arm backwards? or is the image reversed?

    Thanks guys. About the flag, it is funny that a Spanish guy tell you this. I've got some american friends, and the first time I saw this patch in their uniforms I wondered the same like you. Of course this is not a mistake, and I'd like to answer you with an extract of an article I have found in internet. My english is a bit poor to explain you correctly. But the explanation is the same that their gave me time ago.

    “the star field faces forward, or to the flag’s own right. When worn in this manner, the flag is facing to the observer’s right, and gives the effect of the flag flying in the breeze as the wearer 'moves forward'. The appropriate replica for the right shoulder sleeve is identified as the ‘reverse side flag’.”

    Thanks.
