            nice, great job being more subtle than the previous paints.

                Indiana Jones seems like a tough one to capture. Even when the sculpt is good, the facial hair and the other subtleties needed to paint him up right are incredibly challenging. I sympathize with who whoever painted the original.

                ...But by gum, did that repaint ever come out pretty. A real testament to your amazing talents, Dwayne.

                      Thanks Kenny! I've been carefully studying Hot Toys paint applications for a while now, trying to replicate them. They're much more difficult to achieve at 1:9 scale vs. 1:6 scale, but I'm getting close!

                          The "after" picture looks so much better its pretty amazing. It really shows that you need good paint to highlight the underlining sculpt. Very nice job!
