So I've recently been getting into some painting, so I've dove into my old collections for helpless figures to practise on.

First up: Wild Republic tube Whale Shark
(Tragically forgot to take a before photo so here's someone else's image of the original figure paint job)


First repaint so would love some advice and no holding back on the criticism !

Wow, that's infinitely better, even which such a small figure doesn't allow to paint it easily!

Ah...

That would have been a good idea  ;D

Nice. Tube/TOOB figures usually lack good detail in the paint, so they make good candidates for improvement
