From PeteB - Christmas figure with Shovel (10 Points)

My first figure for my first participation is a fact. In this period of the year I always paint some figures from those well known Christmas villages with all those lights for my daughter in law. When I see those figures I always get the feeling to repaint them. So that is what I do now and then. And so I picked this figure to start with because of the shovel and because he’s cleaning the figures from my paintdesk!

The figure is from an for me unknown company called AM/63 and the figure is 54 mm high. Painted with some colourful acrylic paints he looks much better now.

Putting those other figures aside!

I show you also the unpainted figure.

And now on to the rest of the stash with lots of 20, 28 and 54 mm figures. Thank you for letting me try this challenge after all those years of lurking to all the beautiful entries.

Points: 1 x 54 mm foot figure = 10 points.

First off Pete, welcome to the Painting Challenge! 

I really love this figure and the sentiment behind it (not the shovelling but the gifting). :) Lovely brushwork. I especially like his yellow scarf and red-and-white toque. 

And 10 points to start your ascent up the points roster Pete. I very much look forward to seeing what you have in store for us this Challenge. Bring it on!
