First two figures. My first serious attempt at shadowing this scale and face shadowing. Neither turned out perfectly. I'm still trying to find face shadowing technique that works for me. Still a lot of elarning so these faces look like.... well.... something.......

I'm calling this done. Somewhat dissapointed at how it turned out. Even if it was still "getting back on the horse" type of project I hoped it will turn out better.

I wa splanning on making a flak bunker but that fell through. Either I got bad batch or crap producer but if I looked at it sideways it started to fall apart, if you slipped knife a hair width it turned out badly and don't get e started on gluing it together. So I ditched that and improvised this dug out. I see now I should ahv echosen smaller base.

But I did learn some improtant things, namely that flak vierling is great kit (and cheap!), Trumpeter figures are to be avoided, how to build plank wall/trench shoring and benches, a bit of weathering and shadowing on figures (this requires a lot more practise), Vallejo 830 and 920 are not good choices for field grey and I should stick to Life Color set.

Paints: mostly acrylics, some enamel and hardware brown spray paint
