Hi James,

You built it nicely and your presentation is well done, congratulations!

One comment: the paint seems to be on the thick side. Try and use several thinned down layers next time, you'll avoid those paint marks like on the right upper leg.

I note you are not yet into highlighting and shading very much?
You might want to explore the techniques on your next figure, because that is where most of the fun is. Just look around on the forum and you'll pick it up over time.

By the way, I can recommend to practice on good figures, as it is easier to get a nice result even if you are just starting figure painting. I find the Tamiya tank figure quite good, but not as good as e.g. an Alpine figure. The latter are more expensive, but it is easier to find out what to shade and what to highlight, because all the creases are there.

Anyway: Judging by the category you are posting in you are new to figures and for that you show a commendable result!

Now go and do the next one..!

Cheers, Adrian
