Nice work! Did you add the camo strips to the helmet or were those molded on?

Thanks alot bradley  The camo strips were added on using milliput which was easier than what i thought it would be,. That was the first time ive ever added anything to a miniature and im quite happy with the results.

Thanks The paints are all GW ones using the old paints as their called something else now..After spraying with undercoat i apply these in order: Foundation Range: Gretchin Green (base coat). Foundation Range: Knarloc Green (splotches). Graveyard Earth (splotches). Scorched Brown (little stripes). Bleached Bone (little splotches & dots) and then a wash of Devlan mud. The thing im irksome about is they dont look dusty enough. Need to not go crazy with the bleached bone which im getting better at. Im painting Taliban at the moment and awaiting the next 12 figures to come out May - June which will include a JTAC. Dont know what vehicles are good for this range though....?

I am assuming these are 20mm? If so then look at S&S models or the occasional Britannia Miniatures that are still available at Grubby Tanks.

Love everything, but I might suggest either smaller dots with the bleach bone, and more squiggles with them. They look very...cheetahy...
