I did this over a couple of evening/afternoon sessions because I said I'd bring it to Telford!

There is no scale indicated, but the figure measures out at 230mm approximately, so it is probably meant to be 1/8.

A slightly macabre dismembered Iron Man:

Lots of Alcald white primer (luvverly stuff):

The figure was finished with Alclad Pale Gold overall, masked up then sprayed with Hot Metal Red. Then a few dabs of silver detailing with bristle brush and Bob's yer uncle:

There is supposed to be some matt black shaded areas, but I couldn't be bothered.The base was in various shades of Games Workshop metallics then different shades of Flory Wash was sploshed all over.

I got the kit on the cheap in a Modelzone sale, but if you're paying top whack it is pretty expensive. Having said that the components are of outstanding quality, the parts are virtually snap fit and there is very little cleaning up required. There is also the question of image licence fees to consider. I thoroughly enjoyed putting it together.
