    Hi guys,

    A few more progress pics of my latest project.
    Lace all in place, hands and fingers bulked up a bit (he has lost his little finger, right hand when I fitted the spontoon - will replace when the weapon is finally in place!!)
    Gauntlet cuffs added from Magicsculpt.
    Kit hair replaced by Miliput, I couldnt get the plastic stuff to look right!
    Base made from Slaters embossed card.
    Spontoon under construction, blade from plastic card, shaft from plastic tube with a piece of brazing rod inside for strength, will also have tuft from Miliput.
    Tonights task will be to prime and sand down any imperfections (there are loads!)
    More pics to follow soon(y) ,

    Steve
