Nice work Steve, he's looking realistic. And suitably sunned.

I've never had the courage to take on a large scale figure and I have the greatest respect for anyone who does. I think figure painting is one area of modelling that I have avoided despite me really enjoying looking at them.


You've done a great job on this one so far with some lovely blending and shading and some really good colouring. All credit to you for producing such a lovely model.

No worries, even without any 'original actual vehicles left', plenty of rebuilds and tons of photos to check against !

Do you know what I really admire you figure painters, this is just a black art to me I really like this fantastic work.

That's very kind of you, but I wouldn't class myself as a figure painter, just fancied trying something different and were a bargain on eBay.


Overwhelmed with the nice comments, cheers all

Superb work Steve, really like this. I make about 2 good figures out of every 20 I do, just cannot get to grips with them.

Sorry, reading back looks like I was going at you, what I meant was model manufacturers should be able to do better
