Great detail, I'm just not steady handed enough to do that...

Re: Hand painted 1/16 figure
Thank you, it seems to be going okay, but I'm never completely satisfied with the eyes

Re: Hand painted 1/16 figure
I think that every article I've ever read about figure painting has mentioned the difficulty of getting the eyes "right".

Re: Hand painted 1/16 figure
Yes, it requires a very small brush and an even calmer hand - I have neither

A normal small brush, leave just one hair and cut the others, dip it lacquer to make it stiff and voila, your own eyeball paint brush. That worked for me 20+ years ago, don't know how I would cope today. But that aside, the model looks great. The highlights and depths look good Til lykke med den. |

Re: Hand painted 1/16 figure
I really don't know what you guys are going on about.
I like his eyes, they've seen things. Too many things. Things that come back when he closes them. Things that come back with certain sounds, smells... Shell-shocked. War-weary. PTSD. I think with the expression and eyes you nailed it, he looks perfect hanging out by the Purple Heart sign.
