Thanks Mark, Yes he's so gifted, I just ask him to make me something and he always amazes me with what he comes up with, he works part time for a small special effects company usually working on low budget Horror films or music video's   
Cheers Ian

Thanks Clive yes this was one of the very early kitbash posts that we did from way back when I started on AMMO, it looks to have been posted Sunday 25th May 2014, and I joined Ammo 11/09/2013, And yes it was quite bright James did a very nice paint job with it, by just blending acrylics in with the compound we used it was very effective

Cheers yes I can see where you are coming from there, I wanted a more ornate breast plate helmet and grieves as would be worn by a Roman General, but maybe looks more like a Legate, It was a bit of fun to make and got us doing some stuff together, which was good for us both as James had been through some very intense cancer treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma and we needed to move forward and have something to occupy us a and to look ahead, we joined AMMO and have enjoyed it ever since
