Can't believe I actually started this in April but I kinda lost my way on it as there were a couple of things I wasn't happy with plus he keeps staring at me from the unfinished shelf and he will be known as Boris the bloody beheading barbarian as I have added a skull and a spare head from another figure courtesy of tamiya. So I have made a start stripping back bits I wasn't happy with so when he's all cleaned up I will progress with the painting thanks for looking comments /advice cheers John

Very nice figure John!

The skin tone looks very well. Clean paintwork

My comment: you can try a dark brown wash on the trousers, I think will be better to see a major diference between them and the skin.

That looks great John , nice flesh tones great detail all over

He looks like my old geography teacher o_O

Nice One John.

Can I ask why you do not post your finished builds in the completed sections..?

[eddiesolo]

Nice work John, I really like this, superb finish and workmanship.

Nice One John.Can I ask why you do not post your finished builds in the completed sections..?

Glad you asked Ian and I'm sorry I don't but before the forum changed to the new style I used to methodically change my work in progress threads into completed threads but it seems those powers have now been taken away from me so now I don't really know what to do with them and if you could be so kind to explain to me how to do this then I would be very grateful also my gallery is no longer accessible to myself so an explanation or some guidance would be good for that to cheers John
