To finish the year with a splash of colour, my latest one for 2015, a 1/9 scale bust by Garage Box, painted as a Rifle Company Commander of the Imperial Court troops, of the Toza domain, an 'akaguma' or red bear. Comments welcome!

Very nicely painted, but the bust has more of a anime or video game sculpt to it. Is that why you put a gloss look to it?
I seen 2 versions of this and definitely prefer the one without the watermark.:LOL::rolleyes:

Hello Bob!
I agree with the anime feel of the bust, very svelte almost feminine looks for a young warrior. The gloss is simply fresh paint, the blue of the haori jacket taking its time to dry and the red of the yakhair hat is still fresh. I put my name across the same picture on FB in a vain? attempt to prevent it popping up on places unknown. Now it's almost time to open the bottles, my neighbors are already popping of some fireworks!
Happy 2016!
