The Next Model - II
The lower edge of the coat has been attacked with a pair of pliers to "blow the bottom of the coat in the wind" a little bit more.
In other places cuts / tears have been elongated a little and the original very visible joint up the middle of the back and front has been filled and filed.
The joint looks a little rough in this photo, but it is actually very smooth and will cover nicely.
Before finally gluing these two parts together I gave the inside of the coat a dark red wash - it is so much easier to do so when the body is in two halves.
This red lining will later be washed with grey / black / browns to simulate accumulated dirt.
I have also put a heavy black wash over his boots (and have purposely missed out what will be rags wrapped around his boots).
Again, these boots will be covered later in a range of washes to simulate dirt.
Before any further work is done I will mask off the painted parts and apply a fine undercoat to where I have been working on the metal.
