Craig Bellamy Bobble Head

Lots of people who are unfamiliar with Corinthian Figures often refer to them as Bobble Heads.

Well, this is my first repaint of an actual bobble head!

Man City Craig Bellamy custom bobble head repaint

I did this quite a while ago now, but if memory serves, it was originally wearing the black and white of Newcastle United. It was pretty similar to painting a Corinthian really. The only major differences were the size (this figure was a fair amount bigger) and the fact that you do NOT want to hold onto the head while painting it!!

One other point to make, is that this figure is actually a minor remodel! Newcastle kit (it was Newcastle, I just checked) had a collar and V neck, and the city kit, as you can see, is just a round neck. I did a little bit of sanding, and used a bit of filler to change that!
