HL Commander figure redux

I was painting some helmets I had cast up to use as stowage on some of my tanks and I started thinking about a picture I had come across while searching for some camo ideas. It was of a Pz3 or 4 commander, in his cupola, running down the road hell bent for leather. He was leaning into the wind and it was really a dynamic picture. I got to wondering if I could get the standard HL figure to resemble that picture so I figured I'd git it a shot.
Here's the result.

Actually a great idea or those of us terrified to have a go at face painting. Might have to give that a try!

I love the figure, but face painting is not as difficult as people imagine. They are not masterpieces by any stretch of the imagination, but have a look at my thread "painting faces"

I put the pictures back in the first post. ( Thanks, Photobucket)
And here;s a shot of a HL commander that I did for a buddy's DAK Tiger I.

good job
i normally cut the heads and hands off these hl figures and replace with verlinden stuff and they look great !
