Hobgoblin not quite finished...

I opted to paint the statue in Daler Rowney FW Acrylic Inks. They can be used straight out of the bottle in an airbrush and work much like watercolours. The airbrushing was a steep learning curve as I hadn't done any before. I opted to start with the shoes and work my way up before finally airbrushing the head and arms when I had more experience. If I was unhappy with the finish I was achieving then the paint could be washed off with a sponge and started again.
