Pirate Figure Completed

Well, here it is. The completed figure at last. I have to say this one was a real joy to paint. Sometimes it was a pain due to all the detail Alan sculpted into the figure but well worth the effort.The Gold used for the buttons and hand guard was printers ink mixed with the clear carrier from Testors Gold enamel.
The figure is mounted to the resin hull by means of two very small pins. One in the toe of the left food and the other in the heel of the right. I epoxied the feet into the hull then used the wire rope Alan provided to secure the figure even more. The rope is secured to the hull in back of the rail and glued onto the hand. The whole thing is quite strong. I must admit I was a bit worried about this at first but now feel very confident it will hold up. The hull was painted with acrylics.
