                        And here's my first 1/16 figure. I usually stick to 1/35, but it was real fun to paint a figure this big, especially when there's no problems painting the details.

                        Great looking uniform!

                        I'm new to the figure side of this hobby, but to me, that looks awesome!

                        Nice first time job. What is your view on 1/35 vs. 1/16 figures, especially the painting? Did you use oils, acrylics or enamels on the face? I have been eyeing some 1/16 figures but have been holding off.

                        Looks good Tony.  The uniform & details are quite well done.  The flesh areas, not as well done.  Takes a lot of practice to do faces & hands well, especially in the larger scales, but not bad for your first try.

                        Regards,  Rick
