Thanks Paul and PorcoRosso. Fit is very good. Head is just one piece this time. Painted blue and then sprayed light flesh from above.  There is madness to my method. Hopefully, the blue will make him look very cold. |

Adding to his bad day, dent in the helmet, patches on his clothes and rags bound round his boots.    Any other ideas at this stage? |

His face means serious business, the folds were also extremely well done by Tamiya. It's in the right hands!
