And the last member of the team, Big Ben v2. The original Big Ben figure was so awesome that I would have taken him repainted in pretty much any color, this version didn’t come with all of the great accessories that the carded original came with but the color scheme was so unique that he’s still a really great figure.
By far the most difficult of the International Action Force team to make. Because of the trouble I ran into with Red Star, I started Big Ben by putting down several thin wet brush layers to start Big Ben’s jacket & boots. Then to keep the orange from being too bright I did a wash on the pants, shirt & hat. To help with the paint rub because this hobby store paint doesn’t love grabbing to the WW2 figures for whatever reason I followed Kuh Rupht’s advice and used a sealer on the body after I finished painting him. Definitely can use a few more coats to cover some areas that I missed & to retouch up the joints and seal those but i didn’t get any paint rub while putting on the gear so thanks for all of the suggestions! It helped so much!
Full marauder build, just with a lot of fun paint colors added.
