Not the best photo as it's just a WIP shot but you get the general idea. Just need to finish the waistcoat and hair.

Model is by Knight Models and part of their 30mm Star Wars range.

I'll probably update my blog with WIP shots of the other models in the set. link

Wow, looks great!

The face is really well sculpted to begin with and is a pretty good likeness of Harrison Ford. The Luke Skywalker model has an even better face and I'm looking forward to painting him.

Looks excellent to me.

Looking forward to Greedo next.

Oh, and just in case you get invited, do not accept a friendly discussion, or drink in a bar with this guy.

Also, make sure his hands are empty, and above the table at all times, if you choose to ignore my advice.

thats brilliant, very nice subtle colour work.

Really nice blending on this paint job. I agree that you did a fantastic job.

About how much time did you put in to get that level of detail? Must be more than a few hours.

@ 45thdiv: I'm not 100% sure on this piece as I've worked on it off and on over a couple of days. I do know I've spent longer on it than intended though seeing as it's a paying piece.

Glad everyone likes it. I just need to give it another coat of varnish then I might be able to get a finished shot posted.

I love it.

Still trying to get a good finished shot of Han (white balance woes it seems). Started Vader next, although you'd barely notice it by this shot.

Nice jerb. :)

White balance problems with the camera, or photo-editing software?

Camera. Tried sorting it in GIMP but not happy with the colour levels. I'll have another stab later today.

All done!
