                        I build exclusively i1/32 aircraft, but I found this figure buried in my misc. pile in the stash and decided to try painting a figure. Problem is I enjoyed it now I have 8 more 1/32 ,and 5 1/16 figures on the way. I have some work to do to get the highlights and shadows right but it was the first one,practice makes perfect, right?

                        Great work, my first figure looked sorta human if you squinted you eyes just right.

                        Wow sweet! One of the best figures I've seen in awhile! Love how you weathered the jacket, looks like real leather. Nice job on not over doing the recesses and shadows. Makes figures look like comic book characters when over done, kinda like over done panel lines.. Can wait to se the others!

                        What paints do you use?
