BradG Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 This one is kinda on topic, it's an LSPP (Large Scale Plane Pilot). This kit I bought to practice painting faces on several years ago and it sat in my cabinet, headless for about 2 years. I finally decided I should take a crack at finishing it off so here's the result. I'm happy I managed to line the eyes up and it looks ok from 3ft away. My first attempts at a face looked like Marge Simpson after Homer had done her make up with the make up shot gun (for women with only 4/5ths of a second to get ready). It was brush painted with Vallejo and the base is an old trophy with some dirt from the back yard and grass tufts from MiniNatur.

Thunnus Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 That's great figure! Getting the eyes synched must be one of the most challenging aspects of figure painting, no? BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Yes, I did screw it up once, had to repaint with white then go again. A dab with the fine brush and a steady hand are required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Looks great, Brad. I didn't even know this kit existed. Kev BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
