I suppose that's what comes of making a model from scratch - you always notice the little flaws. But yeah hopefully the painting will smooth anything out.<br /><br />@Col Ackland: Thanks a lot mate!

When painted, he is going to look striking with his Iron Hearts. Aloof, young, inspiring, a natural leader. <br />well done.Col.

But it's an interesting challenge that I've not had to face before, so the results will be interesting. Painting is ongoing as I type!<br /><br />@Dai: Macharius sprang into my head when I saw him!

Always troublesome mixing and matching bits from various companies, but I'm willing to bet once it gets some paint on, you'll never be able to tell the difference.<br /><br />Love the fluff, and the model is perfect alongside the Honor Guard - can't wait to see it painted up!Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.com
