Roger Newsome Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 This is a little project I have just started. Airbrush primed and work has begun on the face with acrylics. I'll also be using oils where appropriate. (In other words not sure where yet. ) 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see from a quick search that 60mm = roughly 1:29-1:30 scale. I've never tried painting a whitemetal figure before, so this will be interesting to watch. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll reduce the size of the images in future, these are a bit large for the size of the figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In days of old I used to do a lot of 1/35th, 54mm and occasionally larger figures. Your work is really nice - clean and sharp. Who makes the figure?

clive_t Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 That's some great work Roger. I didn't realise whitemetal castings could achieve that level of detail! Nice one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
