    Having spent quite a while working at the Charles Du Pin figure recently posted, I wanted to do something straightforward next and set myself a week to complete it start to finish. I selected this figure from Beneito which I thought might fit the bill. I got it done in seven sessions but it was a ball-ache from beginning to end. Reasonably satisfied with the result. It needs a blow over with matt varnish but apart from that it's done. Acrylics (AV, Citadel) Zou 2 Blue.jpg Zou 2 Blue.jpg Zou 1 Blue.jpg Zou 5 Blk.jpg Zou 5 Blk.jpg

    Very nicely painted Phil.
    I bet the ball-ache was fitting the parts together. Beneito and easy assembly don't often appear in the same sentence!
