Wow that's really great, that Camo is quite funky.

Thanks mate! :cheers2: Yes, the camo is a simple design of my own imaginary mind. I painted these paratroopers 5 years ago, when I had little or no experience with figure painting. However, I restored these figures a couple of months ago to jazz them up with oils and do more detailing on the face. Figure painting is a mine field, but I´m still learning. :th:

The idea with the map is great, again. However, the camouflage has nothing to do with the one used in WWII. Next time try to clean the figure thoroughly, there are some trim lines still visible. And please, take a look at the Splintermuster, it is actually a very nice camo

Well said! Artistic license. That's the beauty of creating your own models. :cheers2:
