I agree about the faces. Top notch. What was your technique? Flesh tone with a brown wash over it?

Welcome here. Your first entry is really wonderful. But if Santi teaches you that is a logic consequence!

Very nice! Had those figures once, but that was a very long time ago. Fond memories of them, though.

Can you remember what colour you used for the uniform? I have some WW1 Italians to paint but am stuck on a paint for the uniform.

Like a lot of people here, I also very much like how you've done their faces.
