Good evening !
I have just finished this samurai. Sculpt is Pegaso. Scale is 90 mm.
All done with acrylics.
A few modifications done on the kit. Hands were drilled and cast naginata was removed then replaced by a plain steel one which was then painted completely without any sculpted details except the ball at the end. Naginata was also reversed and animation of the samurai looks much better now.
Flag was drilled and brass pin inserted.
Since the attachment of the flag at the back was flimsy, I have added another attach ment. It is not historically correct but it is much stronger this way.
Base is American Walnut and was also done by me. A brass threaded insert is in there for transport.
Please note that the original base of the kit is also hidden there and it was screwed to the wood base.
I would like to show my work on Putty And Paint so if anyone has an invitation code and wants to give it to me, please let me know.
Feel free to critic my word and let me know what you think of it.
Cheers
Alex
