Good grief, this is old!


The figure is the Tamiya Machine Gunner. He's normally seen wearing a great coat, but you get a full uniform too, so I used that. I remodelled the limbs slightly so he could cradle the weapons a bit more naturally. I also removed most of his tidy uniform to try and make him look dishevelled, knackered and wearing a ripped tunic.


As this was my first and only attempt so far at face painting in this scale, it's o.k., but I think he needs some bristles and deeper shadows under his eyes.


Now I've seen it afresh, I'll post one picture on critiques corner and ask opinions, then I can try and alter him accordingly....top to bottom.


Nice to see the old lad once more.....

Very nice Ron. Painting figures are beyond me, if I ever do one, it's hidden in an aircraft.
