James, that looks fantastic.  Great work on that figure.  I notice that the detail is pretty soft, that's not something that is your fault, of course, but if you get a chance, try to get a resin figure to paint, the amazing detail makes it so much easier to paint than the styrene guys.  I am really up on trying to paint figures for every build, and once I got my hands on a resin guy, I never looked back.

Keep it up, great job!
