          Looking very nice indeed. Must try the flory stuff myself one day…..got to be better than oils (dry far too slowly) and acrylic (dries far too fast)…….

              Right I'm finally back.....
              Next up.. a splash or two of paint on this beauty of a figure...

              Already cleaned it up, washed it, and thrown some tonal shading on it to help with the shadows on the final colours..

                had a quick hour laying down some thin basecoats, these are barely paint, more like a thin wash ... plenty of tidying up will be needed, and the lifejacket will be more darker green... but it's a work in progress......

                    Thanks Ian, It's suffered from a lack of mojo, but this has got the ole juices flowing again..

                        Hi Chris

                        What with the my studies i completely missed the start of this.

                        This really has turned out beautifully.

                        Very well done indeed.

                        Looking forward to see how it comes together!

                        ATB.

                        Andrew

                          a bit more work on his uniform..
                          thoughts and comments are more than welcome...
