Title: Wip05 - Tugu Negara (painting Session)


cptan - August 14, 2009 07:32 AM (GMT)
Guys, Painting session...

THE HEROES:
The most challenging in painting this project, I guess would be the different skin tone. First one is the Malay officer, second is the Indian bren gunner, then comes the Chinese batonet charger,Lastly the couple of Assie helper and the Malay wounded. All uniform were base coated with vollejo US uniform green.

Wahhh!!!! The painting looks good and the facial impression is excellent!.

One comment though... maybe it's my eye or maybe it's the lighting (or maybe even the glare from the monitor) the skin tone looks almost the same on all the soldier (except the dead ones) but then again. during war time under the hot and humid climate of our country, that is possible...

Excellent painting CP...

Satu (One) Malaysia!!!!... (this just blurted out... hahahah)

CP,
good progress. My only comment is that the eyes are a little too long and too high a white contrast. I am sure you will be touching it up!

CP,

the bayonets look too big. Sculpted or mix and match?

multifilla.
The bayonet are down scale of actual size. Maybe it look abit large fixed on Jungle carbine cause the carbine is much shorter compare to normal rifle. The bayonet are made of zinc sheet and plastic cards.


koowilliams,
I'm trying to paint them as local ethnic Malay, Indian and Chinese.
