i would like to no just as a general question, i'm hoping to start putting together my first Diorama, and have come to the figures side of things, now to be honest i'm not to keen (or experienced ) at the moment to paint the faces in detail .
is it a must or will it not matter, i only have about four figure and a 4x4 on the base....
just wondering what you may think. if i'm being stupid then please do say.....but be gentle about it

Well painted figures can really punch up a dio, especially to the general public who have no idea waht a Sherman Mk X.2 Lobster tank loooks like. We all know what a human face looks like.
That said, I can almost guarantee your first efforts will be rough. Some of us have been painting for decades and we're still learning.
Have a go at it and post spme pics, if you can, but you'll get more and better responses in the figure group.
