Description
Post-processing in GIMP. The uniform for Michael 6 is by Oskarsson, available at DAZ, and much of the old sergeant character is based around MEC4D's Great Wizard character.
Enjoy!

There is problem with shadow veteran's hat .. maybe I would like to advice rendering in layers (with hat and without hat)
I think you are right. Something did not look 100% correct to me but I could not place what was wrong. I'm going to take your advice when I post an improved and revised version of this portrait. Thank you for your suggestion - I truly appreciate it!
Fantastic tribute!
Well done!
Great work my friend on this wonderful image.
stunning and proud soldier awesome image
Superbly done !!!
Wow, this is so well done! :)
Fantastic Work,
Wionderful work on this character. I love how the facial hair turned out. I am a big fan of any character that has some miles on them and looks authentic and to me this character works. As to the above mentioned shadow lines, you can easily fix it with light movement or at worst some revised 3 point lighting. I have fixed plenty of opps in th dead of night and then up loaded the fix so if you do re-post it , drop me a line and let me know the fix you applied.
Part of the problem also seems to be with the model of the hat, too. The visor is pretty thin and I think there's some light leaking through near the top of the shadow. I'm going to try this one again and pay more attention to postwork or even swapping in an M4 hat rather than the G2 hat included in the set. I'll shoot you an email when I upload the remake.
Hat and Hair is always difficult, there is no problem for me, great "face"
