My 1st ever custom revisited

Hi all,
I've never been truly happy my first custom figure (a very simple head swap & repaint), & re-evaluating why, I knew what was bugging me... it was the pistol holster.
So, as the beret was looking tatty & needed a re-paint, I got a bit brave & using my trusty Stanley Knife removed the holster (& the shoulder 'pips' too).

Thanks for looking.

Looks good. What about painting the belt black - that would give a nice break in the green.

Or Khaki with brass belt buckle and a badge for the beret.
Looks good either way T,shot.

I used bestial brown on my Z Force Captain that brings the belt out wonderfully

Looks really nice for a first custom. I agree with the belt.

Very nice, that's about right for the palitoy vibe.
