Hi All.
The second of the three shades of scarlet has been added. this is the main scarlet colour of the tunic.

The brass buttons have been added using Darkstar Brass metal paint. the white piping down the tunic has been continued down.

The final light shade of Light scarlet has been added round the arms and chest areas.

All thats left to be done is to touch up all the areas that need doing and to lighten the face slightly, and to varnish after that.

Thanks for looking in Ian.
