(WIP 2) Alpine German Fallschirmjager "Unternehmen Merkur"

Here's the completed jump smock for now. I may fiddle with it towards the end when reviewing the paintjob.

I was asked on Planefigure what colors was used for the jumpsmock. As I "eyeball" the colors and don't have a fixed formula, here are the Jo Sonja colors used.

Base: Olive Green, Yellow Orche
Shadows: Burnt Sienna, Prussian Blue
Highlights: Yellow Naples Hue

Since the terrain in Crete during the campaign was dry and arid, I wanted the jump smock to have a slight yellow bias while maintaining a strong green tone. Hope I am making sense :)
