It was a good idea, only deciding against it because I just wanted to get him done ASAP :)<br /><br />Cheers.Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-90423495413148122.post-53952824744611223602016-11-20T19:32:56.946-08:002016-11-20T19:32:56.946-08:00He looks terrific!

So, after that failed I was ready to chuck in the towel, thinking to myself that I had bitten off more than I could chew. But I didn't want to let it beat me, so I had another look around on the net for a suitable donor Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-90423495413148122.post-35958785710323980142016-11-19T07:39:08.952-08:002016-11-19T07:39:08.952-08:00Really really nice final job - great painting and ...Really really nice final job - great painting and choice of colours too. Well done for your perseverance in completing Kulo. For me this is the one thing that has made a difference in me getting stuff done - powering through the moments where I wanted to give up!

Pizza the Hut, what a guy :D<br /><br />The pistol is pretty prominent, not intentionally mind you, as I couldn't find one that was true to the illustration. I tried to make one, but alas, it looked too crap to use.
