Oh alright   But I did rush the gold a bit, must've been the constant nagging  

And next to Kevins' it looks like a christmas decoration

But, as long as yer 'appy son  

[elysium64]

Who's Kevin?
I thought about using gold paint for the braiding but I hate painting metallics, so reasoned from the print that the braiding was yellow
Look forward to being able to post proper picture in a few days.

This is Kevins', like Elvis he only really needs the one name 

[elysium64]

Thought as much, but hadn't seen one painted by him, very nice.

We've got another winner 

[elysium64]

Got my new camera today, so hopefully a slightly improved picture (stil learning best modes to photograph in, I really should read the manual )

[Bugsda]

Still an excellent job, and a good photo dispite the new camera. 

You do know that only women read manuals?

So nice to see lots of different takes on this mini. Real eye candy.

This is one of those minis that just looks like a joy to paint.

This is one of those minis that just looks like a joy to paint. 

That it was. Beautiful crisp detail, I thoroughly enjoyed working on this figure, looking forward to the rest of the regiment being released.
