This figure is from Copplestone, and was a joy to paint. I've had it for years, and it was one of those figures where the paint flowed off the brush into the right places exactly as pictured in my mind's eye.
I now see that the fresh base paint picked up some fluff in my haste to photograph it!
This is my submission for entry, and is thus worth an additional 25 points.

Lovey work Barks (amazing work on the eyes). I know what you mean about these castings from Copplestone. I have an inexplicable affinity to them - they are just so characterful and easy to paint. As you say, the brush just knows where to go and they always look terrific. This guy is so iconic, one of the best not-Indy figures out there, and a perfect choice for an entry figure. Well done!

DeleteLovely work, Barks. Isn't that just a terrific casting - just aching for you to add some paint to it? You've more than done Indy justice, though - fine work, Sir!!
