(Painting) Reaper Bones Mummy Captain

As much as I have some big projects that need to keep plugging along (the Gnomish Space Marines, hints about Blue Martians), I still have dozens, if not hundreds, of individual figures that will never see a dollop of paint if I don't try to make some time for them.  

Some become personal favorites, some are a palette cleanser for painting, some are simply a pain in the butt.  

This Mummy Captain in Reaper Bones material is one of the later.  

Mummy Captain (77145)

It's a cool figure and all, and it should have a place of honor in my Egypt games, but the details on the figure, mixed in with the layers of torn linen just made for a very long and very unsatisfying paint job.  Here's hoping the figure redeems himself in game play.
