Last few days have been busy but I've spent some time painting the Dark Santa figure, finishing some bits off & fixing up others.

It's now at the stage where I need to gloss coat the parts & put them all together, which will require puttying gaps & fixing up the paint work (including gloss coating the finishing work.

Somewhere in there various bits will require washes & high-lights before the final matt coat.

Looking good mate 👌
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

The final result will, I hope, be a small diorama of something of a cross between a Middle-Earth-&-Warhammer-influenced Halloween & Christmas.

I have found this build intriguing around how just a change of colour, aka, the red, can change the entire concept of the figure.

Keep going, I really want to see where this goes.

Santa vs the Balrog? Or the king of the goblins?

Starting to get near the end, here! ;)

Just put the cloak & head onto the body for a quick check of fit, etc., &, while there seems to be a bit of misalignment for some reason (paint?), the ol' boy's looking pretty good! :thumbsup:



PS: You're right, BT, the change of colour really does change the look of the figure, & the other mod's I've done change it even more, even though they aren't all that major, either. ;D
