![]() 1485 forum posts 692 photos | Taken a bit of everyone's advice and painted the remainder of the details and the eyes. Managed to get him to look to one side as per Peter's suggestion. Still undicided on adding a bit of red to the cheeks and/or 5 'o clock shadow. Think the popeye effect is a lot less than before: DIRK |

![]() 1485 forum posts 692 photos | Thanks for your comments and support guys, sorry for the late reply. It's been a while but in between work and holidays I worked little by little on this figure. Getting his Sturmgewehr 44 repaired wasn't an easy job, used a Dragon front end for it and it looked allright until I snapped it again this morning when installing it on the figure. Managed to reglue and touch up without swearing Thanks for everyones support and help, I got something completed DIRK
