Good job on the painting. I am a big fan of the 20mm scale and the new Russian forces.

How can I tell?
A good guess, I would say, since I have seen many, many, many model shows that display hundreds upon hundreds, etc, of bad and good paint job. My standards are lower for war-gaming pieces than they are for models, and there is a huge difference between the two types.
As for a trick to see a more clear pic, take the pic, and shrink it and that will tighten the resolution.
But to defend my statements, he ha clearly outlined all the camo sections in black, a version of the tri-color Russian camo. There are other versions of the tri-color camo, at least 5 versions.
I can tell he is following one of the patterns accurately and I deemed it worthy enough to call it "good" until I can get a better look, a closer look.

I did apologise for the quality, just squint a bit I tried shrinking them, but you'd need a microscope !
I'll get higher resolution pictures of them (plus a couple more) up later in the week.

Interesting stuff, thanks. I was already lighting the models that way, but the camera I used was only 2MP.
