    Last one for today. I completed this Verlinden bust about 2 years ago now, but only just got around to having it photographed. Finish was oils over Tamiya acrylic for the flesh tones, base for the uniform was Tamiya acrylic with Humbrol enamel highlights & the rest of the detail painting done in Vallejo, with silver printer's ink for the metalwork. Large areas of colour were done with an airbrush, as was final Dullcote sealing. The black base of the bust got a couple of coats of Johnson's Klear brushed on, to make it stand out a bit.
    Comments welcome as before!
    Cheers,
    Chris.

    Hi Chris,

    I notice and realize now your absence here in PF, three works of very high quality.
    Well done my friend(y):)

    An excellent trio of figures Chris. This bust is superbly painted, although at this distance it's difficult to see all the details clearly. Any chance of a close up?

    Thank you all for the positive comments, I'll try to take some more photos & post them soon. Ken, the scar was a few spots of Cadmium Red oil paint & plenty of wet-on-wet blending. I hope I can do the same justice to PanzerMeyer when he's available(y)
    Cheers,
    Chris.
