Come on Al. You know if there was a table at MFCA with a sign that said "Wet paint, do not touch', we would all have at least one figure on it

The beadwork is pretty much done. I have to do the edging on the breechclout and shading and highlighting all around. I also have to do the mocassins.
When I first got the figure, the lance was bent at the top and self destructed in the attempt to repair it. While Luca Marchetti was quite willing to replace it, I still felt a white metal piece of this nature would be too fragile. I bent a brass rod to match the curve and length. I then cut away the hand and decorations and drilled them out to fit the rod. The rod was wrapped in fine brass wire to simulated the leather. This will be a much more durable piece than the kit provides. I also added a blade to the bottom.
Hmm, Paul, maybe if I wasn't driving and if there were none of the world famous hospitality

I suspect you would not be the first person to try to drive and paint at the same time!! You can get a lot done in 5 hours if you don't crash.

Hi Al,
Very nice. I especially like the look of the buckskins. And excellent picture too.
Looking forward to seeing this one in person this weekend.
