Davy Jones

[PhilC]

Dear fellow forumers, my apologies for my lack of activity these last months.
Today, I could find time (and mojo) to paint my first mini after the Gobelin chariot made in October. This figure represents a pirate, the famous Davy Jones.



The challenge is to paint a fierce character that spends most of his time under water, so the figure must look wet, covered with shells and seaweed... and not friendly



Hope you like him

Looks wet and slimy and I don't want to meet him on my way home....

And a musical answer to Susofrick:

Just listened to The Monkees. Wrong Davy! Very nice fig!

Monkees? Monkee-EEs, Monkees

Eh eh

Fabulous paintjob! Suitably wet, slimy, and ancient looking.

Usually I don't much like this figure, because I didn't much like the movie character, but You've won me over with this splendid rendition. Well done indeed.

I had a look at your blog and was pleased to see that you got a recent comment from someone I haven't seen post here for a while. Given the current circumstances it's good to know folks are OK.

Shocking monkeys is what you do after Genesis!
