Saw DannyB post a link to this model on ebay, so i bought one, took about 2 weeks to arrive though.

have started to paint it.

this is him unpainted


i have 4 white and 4 black paints to pick from


first i painted his overalls in matt white, hard to see i guess as its already white, but helmet is unpainted


waited hour or so for paint to dry then did the helmet in a gloss white


now waiting for that to dry

if you look at the helmet in the pic where its unpainted, thats how his overalls looked, kinda soapy.

Do you think i need to employ some advanced weathering techniques?
