Dale, Blyth Spartans

I love painting an unexpected kit for the first time! I think it's the excitement it brings to fans of lower league clubs that never got any figures!

Here's my first ever Blyth Spartans player:

I've actually been to see Blyth Spartans play once, and as a stalwart of the club, this guy was probably on the pitch!

Adjustments i had to make to the lookalike figure were adding the beards, changing the hair colour, and, if you look closely, you'll see I've changed the hairline a bit too!

I think I also added a captain's armband after the pic was taken... then didn't remember to re-photograph it! I've had a LOT of figures to do through lockdown!!
