    Very nice indeed. It just goes to show what can be done with a 1/72 plastic figure with a bit of skill. (y)

    Unbelievable that somebody can paint this on a 1/72.
    It is very hard to paint that on a 75 mm..
    Great

    My God! Even the eyes are painted...is this a soft plastic like Airfix? What type of primer do you use?
    Truly fantastic.

    Tony S, thank you!
    Yes, this is a soft plastic. I use like a primer - grey matt enamel paint.

    Congratulations Hitguy! I am a fan of 1/72 scale and I know the work behind such a level of detail. What you achieved here is wonderful. (y)
