Thank you very much! I tried my best and to obtain this shade I used Tamiya nato green and oil dot filter 😉

Great progress. What do you think about the figure detail and posture?

@Danumurthi Mahendra it was a complicated build. All pouches were separate and required gluing. This added realism and you could make the figure "your own", but you still had to check the position of the arms and weapons to make sure they did not interfere with the position of the pouches. As you can see, it was not possible to prevent this everywhere and that's why I decided to redo the poses using greenstuf. What's more, I found the arm positions (except for the figure depicting a soldier talking on the radio) unnatural and would need to be changed anyway. The worst were the traces of casts on the heads and their removal required precision. All in all, those are good figures but if you want to make them perfect it requires patience and precision.

Album info
The photos show the process of painting and weathering the model, starting from painting and covering with clear varnish and after applying the decals. Soon I will add more photos of the figures and further work on the model and diorama.
