WIP T.E. Lawrence, 1918 (Kirin, 120mm)

[Edward]

Hello all,

I've finished the face on Derek Hansen's brilliant sculpt of Lawrence and thought I'd post some pics. It's painted in acrylics.

I am thinking of painting the striped robes in the attached photo..

Thanks for looking,
Edward

Nice work so far, Edward. I agree, those robes would look great on the figure.

Ed, go with the stripes, they don't look too bad to do, and it's what people expect....

Very nicely done Edward. I like the subtle tones. I like the smooth white primer coat you have. What are you priming with? I like the stripes also.

Thanks Jerry. I use white Tamiya Fine Surface Primer. For this figure I sprayed a few coats as I wanted an opaque white surface for the areas of white clothing.

Nice job on the face. I always loved this figure, have it in the stash somewhere. Definitely stripes.
