Repainted Thomas' face. Here's a comparison of the new vs old face. Much cleaner and a lighter grey. This isn't the final face but more of a test using a different grey and ultra thin paint brush. The new face also has the eye holes in place ready for the revised eye mech.

As Percy is currently undergoing a repaint with a much more accurate green, I thought I'd take the opportunity to showcase the body construction. The body shell can separate from the running plate which makes painting much easier. There a total of 5 screws to secure it.
