Hi Planeteers,

As ever with me, painted in enamels and oils.

Hi John,
Top draw mate, he really pops with such a limited colour pallette.....that pistol is just magnificent, the wear and patina you have achieved it looks so real and the best piece of hardware I have seen painted to date.
cheers

Thanks Richie,
It mostly comes from good sculpting and good casting in the first place so thanks for that! Hope to work on another one of yours in the near future .....then persuade you to cast more cough cough.
Thanks John
