The second half of the "Green Day". . .
Doom's tunic is now done. . . sorta. . . kinda. . .
If it were a free-standing figure, it would indeed be done; but much as with the leg harnesses, all I have now is an approximation of the final goal. Which means, in all likelihood, I will end-up re-painting about half the tunic once the figure is completely assembled.
The only green remaining untouched is the mantle. I am tentatively scheduling this for the weekend, though I may start working on the front quarter of the throne tomorrow: the front quarter (panel under the legs incorporating mantle and throne) must be completely painted before final assembly can begin.
This type of engineering might work well for "graphic 3-D" paint jobs where there is but one shade of a given colour used, and any shortcomings are hidden from view by liberal applications of black washes (see here); but for those wanting a more complete/finished and vibrant rendition? Not so much. . .
