Gentleman spy in 28mm

The last figure from Mark Copplestone’s GN9 “Sleuths (and a dog)” pack.
Real gentlemen are undercoated white with a black wash, and so is this guy. The coat is painted black with drybrush of Vallejo 869 Basalt Grey. Shirt and vest is just white carefully painted over the undercoat and wash, leaving some of the black wash showing in recesses. 
Head and hand got a coat of Army Painter Strong Tone varnish, and then everything but the shoes was coated with matte varnish. Being a gentleman, his manservant had polished his shoes to a god shine, meaning I coated them with gloss varnish.

Coat – Probably 869 Basalt Grey
Vest – 989 Sky Grey
Shoes – 940 Saddle Brown
Hat – Black with a drybrush of 869 Basalt Grey

Trousers – 991 Dark Sea Grey
Both figures got a coat of Army Painter Strong Tone varnish on everything except the hats, followed by a matte varnish.

Young detective and his dog

A long time since the last post. I’ve been in the middle of a few projects, and haven’t had as much time as I would have liked for modelling and painting.
Anyway, I’m working on a few models from Mark Copplestone’s Gangsters series, from the GN9 Sleuths (and a dog) pack. The first is a young detective/adventurer with his snow-white dog.

I looked at a pic from the Tintin-movie to get inspiration for painting.
Basecoat of white with with a black wash.
Sweater - Citadel Ice Blue with a wash of Citadel Asurmen Blue.
Trousers - Vallejo 875 Beige Brown
Socks – 869 Basalt Grey
Shoes – 872 Chocolate Brown
Hair – 819 Iraqui Sand
Everything but the sweater got a coat of Army Painter Strong Tone varnish, followed by Vallejo matte varnish.

I don’t know if I’m ever going to use this figure in a game, it would feel sad to lose him to an evil overlord.
