Under 23kg is looking like the current estimation based on prepaint weights

Well my pilot was printed from a file that is definitely Patrick Stuart, but obviously my painting has altered him a little and so many have commented that he looks like Walter White? As a fan of the show, I couldn't resist helping that idea along and last night I needed a diversion from painting, and so set to after work with needle and thread and a piece of felt fabric and here's the result.
