Work in Progress

[daredevil]

This is my current project. It is a 64mm figure from Soldiers. I am using enamels--which I will never do again on anything larger than 1:35 scale!!!!! It is a pain. But the figure is cool--I like the sculpt a lot (by Adriano Laruccia).
Interestingly--I ordered a second one (because the current one is going to my brother for Christmas) & it is not as nice as this one--the sword is flimsy & some of the other detail is not as crisp. Oh well--hopefully a nice paint job with help.
Keep in mind that this is my first figure of this size.
Anyway--here's the little gent for your approval...

Cheers!

The figure is looking great so far Linda. I have been using enamels for 30 years and the secret to doing larger figures is using larger brushes. Then you get the same effect as the 1/35th figures. I also use oils for flesh and acrylics for other special effects. Keep up the great work.
