    I decided to try and get him finished before my granddaughter arrives and chaos ensues:

    [ATTACH alt="100_8534.JPG"]401009[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="100_8527.JPG"]401004[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="100_8528.JPG"]401005[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="100_8531.JPG"]401006[/ATTACH]

    The epaulettes did take quite a time because of the detail, but they weren't as tedious to do as I was anticipating. I used Vallejo Dark Prussian Blue for the tunic, to keep it fairly dark. The varnish has dried slightly patchily, so it will need another coat, but it's essentially done.

          Another top notch finish Peter. The metallics are especially good.

                    Great job Peter. The tunic sets off the braid to great effect. Face is very characterful as well.

                            Thanks Neil. Just realised that I forgot the medal - a small job for the morning.

                                Another from the bench ( table ) to be proud of Peter.

                                Enjoy your time with little one, they grow up so quickly.
