Today I painted the metal parts.

That happened with "Oily Steel" - and a few very restrained washings with Black. The edges of the bayonet I still dry brushed with silver - can hardly be seen in the picture ...:

Head is just fixed to the Body...:

Martin ,

Looking really good now the head is on ....

I really have no idea how you have remained sane painting all those whites

A lot of extra modelling like the epaulettes

"Just the rifle to add ( pinning it perhaps )

Looking forward to seeing the weapon on
