Mitches Captain Nolan 75mm

[Blind Pew]

Hello guys, well I got sick and tired of going on about other peoples' figures and not posting my own. I was getting worried I was sounding like one of those know-it-alls who doesn't know one end of a brush from the other. I probably still don't.

Here is Mitches' Captain Nolan in 75mm. Of course, the first thing Planeteers will notice is that converted right arm. The kit had him proffering a bit of paper. It just didn't look right to me. I did enjoy this one though, and I do recommend it. Please forgive my poor photos.

Any and all comments are welcome.

Great painting and have like this one of Nolan for a while now.

Nicely done, and as others have said the braiding came out very nicely...

Very well executed BP, like him a lot, as others have said the braid is super and you have finished the base off really well.

Very well done; excellent braiding. I have had this one tucked away for a very long time, but never seen one painted up before.

Fellas, thank you all. You are all very kind. Either that or your monitors are on the blink...

I think you are all correct though. Very early on, once I'd primed him up, I identified the braiding as the 'make-or-break' aspect of this particular figure. When researching the uniform, I ended up plumping for black fur trim.

I do recommend it - I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
