If you are interested in testing your patience, I suggest making the inner lining of a 1/35 PASGT helmet…

Made a simple base from a picture frame, DAS clay, AK acrylic texture, poly yarn and fibres from an old paintbrush.

The crew is soon ready to take command of the tank. I rearly paint details that can´t be seen, hence the lack of paint on the trousers.

The crew is ready for action.

Thank you for all the nice comments, guys. It was a fun build and it feels good to finish an old shelf queen.
