Finally, I am back from work, fighting jet lag and managed to tone down on the blues to make it darker and closer to dark blue/black like, brushed in the new gold that I bought in the UK. Buttons, epaulets and close in on the top hair locks and the bottom to match both colours. Here is a rotating lazy Susan look of the bust, almost finished except the headrest, which is the most complicated part, It is almost most difficult to do black shading on black.
Enjoy guys. Next update is on the hat, and once done, the project needed the bottom sprayed and complete with label plate, can't wait for it, must finish this weekend.
