I'm sure you can put him back together without all the kings horses and men, and still not see the cracks John

Well made a start on the torso, the Rt arm was raised up to the shoulder & bent scross the chest so had to cut & reposition pluss redo the sleeve & turnup.

Ok had a little tinker with this bit, bit more filler & sanding and quick primer to check join lines all seems well.

Hi all just thought i would give you an update on this figure, well humpty is all back together & doing well and has just had its first coat of paint.

All webbing has been sanded off & will be scratch built.

I'll not bother you with pic's untill it's done & dusted as we all seem to be watching the half naked lady in chain-mail.

Regards

John
