I have been progressing Red Sam a bit. The bulk of the body is now all stuck together and
roughly undercoated. The head /helmet is still not fixed. the previous owner had glued the
head into the helmet, which is going to make face painting problematical.
The coat, (Jimbaori), is cast in four pieces. A t this moment I think it is going to be a nightmare!
Again, the previous owner had fixed the arms in place, and I am not sure that was a good idea,
and the prospect of putting his coat onto a fully painted figure is frightening. His head cannot be
in place then as the rear of the helmet will be in the way. Additionally, the RH front quarter is nowhere
near, have spent 3 hours or so filing, fettling and swearing, so it nearly fits!
Right, here we go with pics!
