That’s the problem most people find with figures Alan. They think they’ll be quick, but they are not And the larger they are, the longer they take. You probably have about fifteen hours of total work to get those eight done…..but don’t rush them, they are looking very good indeed.Jeez this figure painting lark is never ending! I don't remember taking this amount of time painting a wingy thing lol
This is me set up for the night ahead again...

This picture really shows off the quality of the vegetation - it's absolutely stunning! And as a first attempt it beggars belief - great job.
Ah, that's interesting! You can definitely see how you've built upon the skills developed in that first attempt. If I can be so bold, there's a certain blockiness to the shrubbery that you've completely eliminated this time around. But that first attempt at a tree is really good. I've never done a diorama myself, but I reckon getting vegetation to look natural is fiendishly difficult, and you're definitely nailing it here.Actually Paul it's my second attempt at a dio. My first was an aircraft stand in the bushes in which i think i learned a lot from and have tried to improve upon.
You spend all that time painting the camo pattern for it all to be hidden by equipment
have you considered a black wash over the gates ? That should tone down the grey and give an aged look .
those figures are fantastic and worth every hour you spent on them.
yes, but you’ll know it’s there LOL….excellent figure work, by the way.You spend all that time painting the camo pattern for it all to be hidden by equipment
