Thanks chaps. He is all painted and now ready for a satin varnish. Some washes will help bring the detail out.

A day after the VMS satin and he is looking very nice. I will start the washes tomorrow, maybe. SERIOUS NEWS This is my last weekend with alcohol, no more two weeks before the surgery and then two months after. OMG. Got a nice bottle of Italian red, expensive but to be honest, for my last, not that great. Out to dinner with her indoors Saturday night Akihabara with my mate for model shops, beers and fish and chips Sunday afternoon. Two months without a drink. Someone shoot me!!!!

This fella is so good. Is he painted in all Acrylics? If so You'll have to give me an SBS on how to do it as I've only ever done figures in enamels

Cheers Robbo.
For this one I followed squidmar YouTube clips. Also having sets of colours helped, particularly yellow.
And purple for the shadows on the face really made a difference.

He does look very good Tommy As for your serious news, well you'll get through that alright. I did with the trouble I had at the end of last year. 10 weeks of not drinking, and that over x-mas and new years

Thanks Paul and Steve. Black and brown washes, a clean up, repaint the white and the white leather and the gold buttons and insignia. Thinking about the base now.
