After seeing Nap's review of this super figure I managed to purchase one from Robert Lane at Elan13.

Nice mouldings and the cleaning up was very easy to do. So after that and a good wash I gave him a light coat of Halford's white car primer.

Nice to see there is quite a long back to the bust.

I started blocking in some colour to the uniform with Vallejo acrylics and painted his face with my usual Artist's Oils.

His hat and scarf around it I painted in slightly different shades to show a variation and added pearlescent medium to the scarf colour to give it a silky look

Now for painting the rest and the detailing.

A bit more done yesterday evening and this morning.

Epaulletes, neck stock, lacing, badges and buttons painted using pearlescent medium mixed in with the various grey shades, a lighter shade of yellow wash applied to the collar and turnbacks. The wig also given a light grey-white dry brushing.
