Robert the Bruce a 28mm Footsore figure. I didn’t use any transfers, all hand painted, keeps my painting mojo active. 😂

He really looks amazing. I particularly love the dirt. It feels very natural.

You want to keep it safe, so I'd say inside the helmet.

Excellent paint job.  I did a similar figure many years ago for a friend and eventually after many repaints got the full arms on the shield.  I see you abandoned the double tressure flory-counter-flory of the second.  And I don't blame you!
