I'm glad I tried polishing the helmet instead of painting it. I have a couple more armoured figures so I will continue to experiment with teh finishes Alan Old Collingwood, Egilman and Canute 3 Quote
king derelict Posted August 6 Author #33 Posted August 6 I added a short piece of cor to the figures left wrist and painted to match the lanyard cast into the arquebuse rest. The putty at teh wrists was carefully files and the cuffs and hands were repainted. then the rest was added to the figure. The base was painted and some Woodlands Scenic grass added. I was going to add a few more bits of foliage but it seemed a bit too much and unless he had no choice I can't imagine the arquebusier setting up in the middle of a briar patch so I kept it simple. He has now been carefully separated from the painting base and moved to the shelf. Maybe its time to choose another Art Girona offering. Thank you for looking in, for the likes and comments. Once again this has been a very enjoyable short project Alan druxey, GrandpaPhil, Jack12477 and 4 others 4 3 Quote

How’s the delivery time ? They seem to ship very quickly usually within a day or so and shipping has been around a week to ten days to Florida. They are a small business. The person who packed my orders is the person who paints the figures. so what are you thinking about Jack? American Civil War? They have some interesting figures for that era. I especially like the Zouave. alan Old Collingwood, Canute and Egilman 3 Quote
