Hello all, here is a piece I recently finished, ICM's Finnish Riflemen 1940 set, depicting a man who has gotten lost delivering supplies with a pack reindeer, asking for directions from a pair of ski troops. This is my first attempt at a scene with snow on the ground, as well as my first time painting an animal, so a number of new things, but all in all I'm quite pleased with it.

I really like this, Norm. It's amazing how much colour there is, even though there's no... colour. The reindeer is a great touch.

Lovely piece of work, a really nice job on the white snow suits.  White is always difficult to paint well.
