Hi Simon
Cheers ...putty pushing is all done now , will let it fully dry .....then quick piccy and paint ......to final completion.....
Wellingtons looking at me in disgust ...Real general is doing the same as well ...lol
Nap
I'm glad he's back. This would have been the only time Wellington lost to Nap..........
LOL .....believe me it’s nearly happened .......
This is the details I did next ...
Started painting it .......then proceeded to catch the various areas ...no idea how ........
Will I end this all .....could be for the best .........
But NO !! ......so I resculpted ...now looks like this ...once dry will paint ..should be okay as I tacked ...carefully with a tiny touch of superglue ......shaking while doing so !
Whilst waiting for tge putty to entirely dry ...again ....MELCHY has reached the bench
Happy days
Stay tuned for more updates and what will be the Completed piece
Happy benchtime

but good news ............just the buttons to do .......
I did remove the putty I’d added to the cast ones but looked and thought they were too thick , now added a better version ...
Now do I sculpt details or use paint .......it’s paint for me ! ....phew !! I hear Simon say
Using this reference

Wow not seen a Marathon since those damned Snickers turned up and 3p as well. I reckon paint for the buttons too, sculpting that many that small would be difficult with consistency.

It won’t be long !! ....Oooohhhh !!what a tease ...lol
Of course I’m far too young to remember Marathons .......buttons have been painted ...just blacking out the underside and then confine I’m happy with the scarlet and the blue sash
Thanks for looking in
