Yeah, nice pickup there; it is probably sensible to start with a project that is a bit easier than some of the nutters on here attempt. By nutters I mean enthusiasts.
i can agree with that. my first pin was sitting in a ops shed on its back against a shed wall for 20 years
about a month after buying it i thought i better turn it on and see if it works as the original owner wasnt sure and didnt want to turn it on incase of a problem. It worked but was a tense moment
mate get ready for a restrip with your new polish shortly also
. (you want it mailed or happy to wait?)
Also with frankie look at the games workshop range of paint also and some small sable brushes. They do some nice flesh colours and flesh wash (all water based) to touch him up. Used to use them back in the old days of warhammer collecting. only a few $$ a pot and heaps of colour choices
Another note with frankie to get into the creases of his clothes ect to give him a good clean spray him with polish and use a old electric toothbrush in the crevices i found this a handy tool to clean in hard to reach places
