Opel Olympia- driver figure.

First the driver figure.
The figure is from Yosci, with the Hornet head. I needed to sand down the Totenkopf crest on the cap, and replace it with the correct one. I used the stretched sprue for the string, and Tamiya tape.


Valleyo basic skin tone for the face.
Vallejo 102 / 105 / 058 mix for the trousers, and cap.
Tamiya XF-66 for the jumper.
Shadows on clothing using the base colors darkened with flat black.




Face painted with acrylics.
Sealed with flat varnish, and awaiting the oils.





Oils were used to tie the face together.
Satin varnish on forehead, bridge of the nose, cheeks, bottom lip and chin.
Decals were also placed on the cap.


I equiped the figure with glasses to add extra detail.
Optics were made using Kristal Klear by Microscale.
