The dirt portion of the base didn’t turn out quite like I had in mind, but a final dusting of pigments should take care of that. It also looks like I may have to let the paint dry a bit, then dry brush a final highlight. Below you can also see the figure test fitted to the base. Thanks for looking and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
