After a brief aside whilst I painted a commission piece (images to come once I have permission to post details), I am back on the huge samurai! *gulp!*
His head is complete bar the pattern on the white fold-backs, and both arms are almost there too. My mission for this week is to get to a point where his arms, legs and head* are attached and all that is left are the details such as the separate silk knots and lanyards, his swords and his quiver. As soon as I get to that point I will make sure to post pics!
*The head depends on how easy it will be to add the armour plates to his upper arms after it is glued in place
Here is a very poor, but closer shot of the chest piece with the very beginnings of the freehand design which will eventually cover all of the white armour plates.
Enjoy!
Slowly but surely
