Hello all,

having been seduced back into wargaming by Dust Warfare, I have taken a break from not finishing my GW armies to actually finish my first Dust model.

I wanted to test my idea of a paint scheme to be applied to the entire army based on German splinter pattern camouflage.
Also, I have toyed with pigments for mud and have generally tried to stick to a more low-key realistic approach than I normally would.

The model still needs insignia (I am considering FoW decals) and varnish.

Please feel free to tell me what you think, and use your chance to tell me what I should change, before I paint more of his comrades.

Go with that, mate, very cool, especially the fatigues camo pattern, nice and subtle, maybe the body armour could be dulled ever so slightly but thats just my humble opinion

Thanks, VikingChild. I am still waiting for decals to arrive, so I cannot apply matte varnish, but I hope it will flatten the colours somewhat.

I have now painted the rest of the squad as well as an Axis hero in the same scheme:

Those are awesome!

Thanks. Now with decals:

Nice!
