The figure is now fully assembled.
The subassemblies have been assembled and fitted. There are currently six:
- Head
- Tunic -- including a sculpted gorget (2-pcs)
- Tunic tails/fauld (2-pcs: 3 + 1)
- Sculpted plackart
- Sword blade
- Spaulders (2 pcs)
As I have alluded to in the earlier postings, the main challenge of this figure will be the 'final' assembly of the painted component subassemblies upon the painted base figure. This will afford me the opportunity to evaluate the tonality of the tunic, etc. to maximize the visual effects of the figure; however, it will also demand a certain degree of judgement as to 'when' and 'how'. . .
What follows is the final clean-up and once-over of the base figure. It will hopefully be primed within the fortnight. . .
More to follow. . .
