Joe Pineapples in the flesh/chrome
« on: 21 July, 2011, 11:35:50 AM »
Nearly there now. Pretty pleased with how his bodyworks come out and the rest of it is a doddle to paint, being simple blocks of colour:



And the rest are being painted seperately:



As the kit is based on the Bisley version, i was going to go with the logo/slogan-adorned rifle, but (A) he's holding it upside down, (B) i don't want anything too bright that'd distract from Joe.
So am going with a brutal, hrash, plain gunmetal as a contrast to him.

So, here's Joe the one-armed bandit standing up:



The next step of attaching the gun and left arm i was kinda nervous about as its a bit of a whopper, but the arm fits so snug due to have a locating pin built in and i used nearly set Araldite, that it were a doddle:

All done now.
Cameras lying about the colours, as there's more going on there than it would have you believe, but it just doesn't like mettalics.
Real pleased how the fellas come out and he really does stand out on the shelf he's guarding.
