Hello my friends.
I will call this figure finished, if you have no comments on it. I know it could always be better, but after two months of painting I think he is done.
The casting was great, but fitting was a pain in the #$#%. Specially the right arm and wrist didn't fit in no way.
Well my pictures are as usual not as it should be, but this is the best I could get.
Let me here what you think.

this figure has to be very amusing to paint and it is on my wish list, it is always a pleasure to seeing this figure painted and you did a nice work on it..
 
Good stuff there Marc.
Yes, the fit as you described was a bit of a pig. Thing is, i found you have to do this in sub-assemblies as otherwise you can't reach what's behind the arms. The shield is well rendered as well mate. I found the face wasn't the most enjoyavble to do either, and I had to strip mine once. The is an odd figure though, as the face isn't the focal point. Nice groundwork Marc as well, better than mine.
Well done.
 
Thanks Adrian.
You have to paint everything before glueing the arm's.
I knew they not fit properly, but couldn't manage them before everything whas painted.
Then with some putty I fixed the problems.

Marc
