Hi All

This figure was commission for a friend of mine who is in the Army, I completed it about two months ago and misplaced the pictures in the wrong folder and only found them today.

My friend sent me one of the SS Rebel figures and asked to have it changed to a comms specialist as that is what he does in the Army.

RECIPE

Body & clothing - The body, head and garters are from Dragon Models, the gloved hands and uniform are from Sideshow Toys. With the helmet I removed the right ear cover and replaced it with a German WW2 head set piece and added wires and a small mouth piece to it.

Equipment - The rifle and comms unit are from Sideshow Toys, I added extra wires and parts from the bits box and also added a thinner rifle sling to the weapon.
The small toolbox, long pouches and pants belt are from Dragon Models. The uniform was given the old boil and wash method to soften the cloths and then slight dry brush of various colours to get the desired look.

Base - the base is from Sideshow Toys which comes with the figure, I covered it in a two part mix of plaster and kitty litter.
When the mix dried I painted it then let dry and and gave it a wash and drybrush of variuos browns to get the desired colour.
The plants are fish tank plants which have been given a slight wash of a two part mix of Dark Green and Off White.
