I got this OOP figure kit secondhand. La Fortezza was an Italian metal figure manufacturer. Had a comprehensive range of figures. The figure has an attractive stance, albeit a little soft on the details. Now assembling the parts.

Assembled the left hand and the shield. The helmet will be fixed after the groundwork has been completed.

I polished the figure to bring out the details. I noticed that the nose was dented, the chains moulded flat and the right hand doesn't rest properly against the hip. The feet armour is also not properly done.

The nose was resculpted and I added a moustache. This will be a German knight as many of them are represented with these chains. I filed off the chains and will add real chains.
The right hand was reposed to include a helmet.

I took a few days off during Xmas. Besides spending quality time with my family and celebrating Mass, I really had a great time indulging in the hobby.
Started off by undercoaing this figure.
