Question to original Nom de Plume owners

Quick question.  I purchased an original Nom de Plume awhile back when 3A was hot from an original owner.   So I'm the secondary owner.  I know these figures were prone to break at the ankle cups connected to the shins.  So I wouldn't be surprised if my figure has replacement shins/ankle cups.  Anyway, my question is were these shins originally painted?  If so, could you provide me with pictures of the shins.  Any help would be appreciated,  Thanks in advance!
