Hello!
Parts with defective paint are not shown (or the defect is outside the viewing angle for taking the picture). I tried to paint some arms, but I couldn't make a 360º application. I'll try again.

Some torsos, seen close up, allow to perceive the original playmobil pad printing under the paint. That doesn't happen in the old, monochromatic torsos.

For a better interpretation of the paint applied, here are the pieces that are painted.

Thank you for your comments.

Nice work Nico! I can't see any flaws in your paintwork and I know how hard it is to achieve an even finish. Did you use a primer under the colour coat?
Today is a grey day here.

@GrahanB, sorry for my delayed answer. No, I don´t used primer under the colour coat. Simply and fast action  ;D

ROGER BROWNBADIL is a quiet man. He likes to follow the cycle of the seasons calmly. He enjoys life and asks nothing of the future. He plays with his dog and, above all, smokes the excellent tobacco he grows himself. He does not sell it to anyone, and his friends and neighbours sigh when they come to his house and he impregnates them with the aroma of the smoke present throughout the house.
He always has his sword at hand, because he does not forget how much he had to fight for peace in his lands. Thanks to his drive and leadership, he managed to unite the owners of the valley, and expel that troop of looters who were about to raze them all to the ground. Since then, everyone in the valley calls him "The Mayor", and although in reality everyone looks after their own interests, whenever there has been a threat Roger has known how to find the solution. He found the rock under which they dug the year of the drought. The water gushed out and since then they have never lacked water again. He chose the location of the mill, and except for a few days a year when not a single wind blows, its blades never stop turning. And so many disputes and conflicts he has been able to resolve...

The backstory adds a lot of depth to your custom, which is very good-looking by itself!
