One for the Ladies by Martyn

Description	:	Long time since I entered anything for the comp so I thought I might try this guy. He was finished yesterday but was actually started last year I got tied up with the little guys and this one was sat by the machine for some time in just a brown undercoat. Not exactly pleased with the way he has photographed he has come out a bit darker than expected and also picked up a few shiny spots on the way. It was suggested by a female friend that I put hearts on his boxer shorts but I really couldn't face cutting off the dots to make it all smooth then try painting hearts on them so he has been left as was cast. He is from the old GW range of Judge Dredd mini's that was cast up in the eighties. The skin is a blend up from the scorched brown undercoat to elf flesh and the helmet was black up to space marine blue although you can't really see that much from this angle. Hope you like him and comments are welcome as usual.

Does Great Cthulhu know his feet are being used as boots? Very funny piece. Well done!

Love the shorts! The skin is very nicely done, great realistic nipple. I like the painting of the funky boots, also.
