Completed My second chess piece painted

[RKapuaala]

I am in the process of sculpting a Hawaiian Chess set. I started with King David Kalakaua and I am busy sculpting Kapiolani the Queen, his wife. All the royal pieces will be 7/8ths scale but the pawns will be 1:20.32 scale.
I have just finished painting the second King in Blue.

The full set will look very impressive, this looks excellent as stand alone figure.

Thanks Karl, Hakan
I plan on using him on my 7/8ths layout too.

This is similar to the first loco that ran in Honolulu his 50th birthday celebration.

Carl, most of it is scratch built.
List of scratch items:
The smokebox and smokebox door
The head lamp
The water tank
The front beams and back beams
The cabin platform
The cabin
The hand grabs and side steps
The rear coal bunker
The smokebox pedestal
The ash pan
The (soon to be) rear wheel assembly (not the wheels)
The rear beam and split coupler
The head banjo fitting
The oiler
The backhead detail
The steam chest pressure valve assembly
The rest are parts I bought and what was left over my accucraft Ruby that I deemed okay.
