This is my figure of a Melusine Armoured Fighting Suit from the Ma.K series.
Its one of the  opposing suits to the AFS suit I posted on the forum.
I modified this suit slightly by upgrading the weapon arm.
I painted the suit in a pseudo WWII German camo scheme and heavily weathered it with dust and scratches.
I nerly coated the base with a couple of typed of Lichen, I chose this to represent moorlend bracken and heather.

Cheers Mark, I know you were waiting to see the finished article, the first pics on Facebook were not particularly good.
I'd decided not to post anything here till it was completely finished.
The scratches are really easy to do, I just load a brush with paint and wipe off the excess.
Then I dab the side of the brush along the edges most likely to be damaged, it makes nice little chips from the paint.
I want to die in my sleep, like my dad.

Interesting figure with excellent weathering(Thanks for the tip).Reminds me of the fighting suit in Avatar 3D.I was raised on sci-fi.Neat trick bringing the eyebrows up in the middle to represent anxiety.Not sure I like the yellow love heart?Perhaps a Vietnam 'Peace' symbol?Aka "Full Metal Jacket"?Was this painted or sprayed?
