Sometimes, several of these posts are generated in a single modelling session. But not this one.
Painting the driver took place over a series of evenings. Nice little, fun jobs that I was able to keep working on, even after a busy day in front of a screen.
His head is separate, and supplied in two halves. I used my usual trick of painting his skin with Humbrol flesh, and the dry-brushing with Revell's version.At this scale, picking out his eyes wasn't hard, he's even got pupils from a 0.3mm Rotaring pen.
The helmet was painted white, masked, and then painted Signal red. I should have used narrower tape, as the masking wasn't perfect. Some narrow Trimline tape hid the worst niggles though, and a generous coat of matt varnish will hold it all in place.
