Since I am a great believer in Tamiya black panel liner I thought I would give the Tamiya figure accent colour a go as a way of blending. So, I painted the face as best I could then a layer of accent colour to blend. Results not ace, but moving in the right direction. Just needed to clean the excess from the eyes. What does the panel think?

Using a lot of poetic license for these three guys. Bit more detail to paint before a gloss coat.

Thanks Ian. A spray of gloss, next day Tamiya black panel liner, taken off straight away with a clean brush just moistened in thinner. Matt coat tomorrow and they are done.

Thanks Si. Here they are with a Matt coat. The base is Tamiya diorama paper, painted with oils and then speckled with light grey and grey acrylic If I can’t find the lollipop tomorrow I will make a new one.
