US soldier in Iraq

I was thinking I should honour the visitors of this blog like someone I already saw...
As US visitors already went over 100 (even if it was by mistake :mrgreen:), this figure cames in the right time. I hope you like it.

I did this for Benno's duels (which I deservedly lost for Wintrix). As I said at the forum, I should have searched for my opponent's works before accepting is challenge! :mrgreen: When I saw modern armies were his field of expertise it was too late!
This is a Caesar Modern US Army. It was the first time I painted a modern army figure and had no idea of how to paint a uniform like that! Now I have to paint at least another figure to fill that base and I'm not sure if I can replicate the uniform! 
I leave you with some pictures, some were used for the duel but others (I enjoyed the painting AND the experiments with Paint Shop Pro!) were left out.

  4. This had my vote to. I thought the other figure was holding a fish! Very nice first attempt.
