Here is the last stand of three crazy Vikings. These Zvezda 1:72 figures were painted for my best friend. Actually, it was the first time I painted flesh. Well, tell me what you think.

Looks good in general, but the flash on the arm of the bare-chested guy is quite visible.
I really like the base!

Lupus, you're right. I don't know what's wrong with Zvezda's plastic, but it's a real hell to work with. Removing flash or sanding is really difficult (at least for me) because it tends to become sort of fuzzy. Even primers do not want to stay on it (I tried Vallejo polyurethane primer, Chaose black and Tamiya's grey) and they flake off, if you only dry brush a little harder.
