Kitbash - Green Beret (Alternative Lighting)

Took more pictures on the same day. Tried switching off the room light as the sun was very bright. The bounce light from the sun created better lighting and shows more details than the other set.

Kitbash - Green Beret (completed)

Tried my hands on coffee-dyeing the BDUs. After 2 hours of soaking, I liked how the 3C looks and the ACU simply had a darker shade. Went on the sand the raised parts of the seams with very fine sandpaper to give it the worn look. Chalk pastel weathering on the BDU and vest, dry brushing the plastic parts and voila! Er, not as good as I wanted it to be cos the sandy bits were destroyed as soon as I sprayed on the layer of clear coat...... Bummer. Well, it's my first.

Kitbash - Green Beret

Mixed BDUs I saw online somewhere. Thought it should be a good start for my weathering of the whole figure. Here's the proof of concept. Just wanna see how things flow and hang on the figure. Already started with the weathering of parts. :D
