The skull came out crap as I have nothing fine enough to paint with that detail. One arm I got from Bill was black gloved so I painted the other one too. Wanted a bit more variation than just his head, but not too much.
I consider these 3 guys to be NCO's. The likes of Black Major, Red Laser, Jackal, Vulture and Wolf are officers.

mark use a pin. its time consuming and a bit tricky but allows you levels of detail you cant get with a brush.

i get really really small brushes i like to use, did try using a pin once & it works well just takes a steady hand & lots of patience!

I shake like all sh*t (unless I'm shooting) and have a devil of a job. I actually used the end of a craft knife, fine point end. But the pain ran too much.
