I painted him in quite neutral military colours.

Well done piece, the skin is amazing, maybe a NMM on teh gun will make it more uniform... the face paint job is amazing but don't like his expression but overall a marvelous job.

Sorry to hear about your friend too.
This is a fitting tribute though. Very nicely painted and realistic too. Like you say, the skin is great!

I agree with primeval, the skin is some of the best I have seen. Very natural clor. I also like the armor with the small chipped effects.
