His helmet was the original test piece I did until I repainted it. Other things to mention was the mags on his chest (rather than the pouches most of the other figures have) and the water line running over his shoulder. Painting these up in the right colours really makes him look better, rather than just tan &#8211; perfect for a squad leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also tried painting him up as an African American.  Out of all the Marines I&#8217;ve painted so far, none of them have been black. So I thought it was time to make the group slightly more diverse. I&#8217;m still learning how to paint it &#8211; my current recipe is Burnt Umber, drybrush Beige Brown, highlight Beige Brown and then Agrax. I&#8217;m probably going to paint a few more using this technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_20200715_231706-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_20200715_231706-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_20200715_231706-scaled-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Well with three fireteams done and an NCO to lead them, I&#8217;ve got myself a USMC squad.
