The main part of the figure is done:

Today, I finished off the jacket and painted the trousers and boots. I mounted him on a base at this stage so that I could weather the boots to match the ground colour.

Hi Peter
Well up to your usual high standard. Love the head and the furry hat.

Stunning work Peter. The jacket is detailed well with many folds. Is that due to the sculpt or have you painted some more on freehand??

Morning Peter

Looks good, have you amped up the contrast and highlights?

Should be a good day with all the accessories, and the light too, though its a little grey here.

Started watching the new version of Catch 22, it benefits from the latest CGI with the flight scenes.

Interesting concept and well presented too.

It would be labelled PTSD today, cowardice in WWI and WWII.

Nearly weekend and another chance to do some modelling, dependent on what Anna can break today!

Enjoy the paints and another summers day

Regards

Steve J - The jacket is very well sculpted, and it's benefited from being painted brown instead of black. The folds and creases are all sculpted, though I did add a few more to the trousers. I must admit that I'm finding more and more to admire in these Dragon figures.

Steve H - Bright and sunny morning here and promising to be a hot one.

I have tried to up the contrast with this one, but it doesn't come naturally too me.

I've been watching Catch 22 as well, but I find the constant advert breaks too diverting. I think I prefer the Alan Arkin film as it better captures the feel of the book - crazy humour, deep satire etc etc. Of all Joseph Heller's novels I enjoyed Something Happened the most, though Good as Gold is hilarious.

Fingers crossed for some bench time this weekend - you deserve it!

I see you've been experimenting. Looks very nice particularly on the trousers.

Ralph - Many thanks.

John - Thanks also. 'Cautiously experimenting' is the term.

OK, he's finished:

Thanks Neil. Good to create something unique, though I suppose if you knew these Dragon figures you'd recognise the main elements easily enough.
