Nice work.

It's tuff to pull off thee SS camo, in such a small scale.

Very well done, the camo looks great! As Fritz has said, it is difficult to do in a smaller scale...but You did it. What colors did you chose for the Autumn camo scheme?

Very nice, the "pea-dot" style camo pattern came out looking great.

BTW, is that diorama base from FOV...?? Just curious... It looks kinda familiar.....I think may have one similar to that around here someplace....

used Model Master color for the base color for the tunics called Skin Tone Shadow Tint. I was using some color photos out of a reference book on uniforms and that was the closest color I had to the color of the base tunic. I think Model Master must have about 8-10 different skin tones. The orangish splotchs, I just mixed some colors together to get a good match to the photos. In my pics the orangish splotches are a little more prominant than they are in person. For the overall figures, I used Model Master, Humbrol, and Testors (yes, those little bottles of enamel. They do come in handy occasionally).

The diorama base is one of the Forces of Valor. Saves a lot of time and they do look good.
