Second and final round of dotting on the harness and added the black stitching as well. I used a straight Titanium White oil paint to apply a last bunch of highlighting dots along the edges of each strap:





A few final details and we'll be ready for some "glamour shots" to be posted in the "Completed Figures" thread.

Thanks for following this far - cheers.

It'll be a few days while the oils set up before I take some finished photos. As for what's next, I haven't the foggiest; I do have a pile to choose from, though!

Excellent finish, Brian!

Not sure how you do it, but I still use Dull Coat rattle can after the oils set for 3 days. Call me loco, but it works, lol.

Not at all - that's my jam as well. I use Tamiya Clear after minimum 4 days.
