I like the figure paint.

Thank you. I am not that happy with how the flora camo turned out- doesn't seem green enough overall to me.

It doesn't look that off, though if you're still unhappy with the colour of uniforms in general (as I doubt you'd still be tinkering with these guys almost a year after you posted them 😄) - washes can darken up things a bit (basically acting as a filter), while also making the uniform feel a bit more lived-in (since you can go for an uneven application, so the weathering is not.. pardon the pun.. unrealistically uniform).

Very nice work on especially the figures. The BMD also came out very nice.

Thanks for the tips, bk, and the kind words Villers and Mathias! I weathered the BMD and VDV some more since these were posted, I'll get more pics up sometime.

What a lovely job. Nicely painted figures and nice subtle weathering on the BDM

No problemo, I was just sharing a tip I stumbled upon (maybe on Reddit?) when I was worrying about a set of Panzergrenadiers I made turned out paler than an Irish vampire XD By the way, thanks to the fantastic work you did with the BMD, I decided to grab me a couple of those (with one destined for some serious interbreeding with a BMP-3 😄 )

Ah, and one final thing I noticed while copying your work, errr... I mean while I was verifying how PE5 should look on the model - in case you want to take a photo of your fantastic BMD-4M with a deep field of view (so the entire bugger is in focus), but don't have access to the necessary camera/lens - you may want to give focus stacking a try. It's literally as easy as taking 3 pictures from (roughly) the same spot that focus on 3/5 spots on the kit and then using Enfuse (a fantastic free tool) to create a seamless composite image that's entirely focus. Ah, and if those pics are an artistic choice, uhh, please disregard this comment 🙂
