Just done - Elite French Lieutenant

[Dave]

I've just finished this figure. It's one I'm doing with Robin who's also on Planet Figure. I used Andrea and Vallejo paints for the trousers and artists acrylics for the rest. To get the matt black I added a little MIG black smoke powder to the paint - it seems to work.

A really superb result Dave...did you take any more pics from different angles..?..I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to look all around him..

All the best...Roy.

Great figure. He is a picture on the box of another Elite figure that I am working on. Every time I see that box on my work bench, I think, "D___, I gotta get me one of them..." :lol:

Dave and Robin's pics sure make me want to go get one for myself
Nice work!

Dave, The figure turned out very nice. The figure looks to be one that just paints itself. ~Gary

Dave, nice work on this one! This figure seems to have a very wide appeal. I think it will have a long life span on show tables! Thanks for sharing,
