Thanks guys!

The figure is finished but for the boots and some weatherin'. Anyway, here is the face.

I've jus' noticed that there is a paint mistake on the helmet, that'll be sorted!

Are you talking about the tiny bit of lighter metal right on the corner part of his right eye in the first picture? or is that supposed to be there? either way looks great, from the tanned skin to the rotten teeth!

Yeah, its some gold paint that has slightly bled onto the steel near his right eye, your 'right' not his.

I'm lookin' for a company that can engrave a small brass plate. I've enquired around town where I live, but they all seem to have the rubbish, brass lookin' plastic alternative, and they're all set sizes. I need someone's help, and a few pointers on these sort of things.

Cheers guys!

Haven't checked in in a a couple days. Beautiful work on this guy.

I did a quick UK search and found this through Google: The Sign Maker. Any decent trophy shop should also be able to do the job for you. I've been getting 1.5X1.5 plaques at a local shop for about $3.00 each.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Thanks for that AJ.

I've found a company here in Birmingham, UK. They specialise in nameplates for models, which is cool. Cheers.
