Nothing to beat yourself up about there Ralph - I also think it looks like a very fine paint-job indeed.

And at least you got it finished - I tried and failed with this one. I didn't think it was one of Moz's best sculpts in the first place and my casting was pretty poor and needed lots of work. Once I had replaced all of the missing parts I just couldn't do a decent job on all that green, so doubly well done there.

Also, you're not alone in thinking one's work sucks. I hate everything I do.

I agree the casting was poor,needed a lot of filler.
I swore at it numerous times.

Hit the "Reply" button bottom right of the reply you want to quote, next to the "Like" button.
Or highlight the text you wish to quote and the reply button should appear.
If you have several that you want to quote together in one reply it gets more complicated. Some forum software offers a multi-quote option, but this one doesn't. It's possible by going backwards and forwards, cutting and pasting quoted replies as you go, but one at a time gets the job done.
Yes it does lol just go back to the post you want to quote and highlight the bit you want next.


Cheers

Ralph, the paint work looks good and you've managed to get the figure together as I've heard of Peter's experience with it. Not your fault the molding is bad as I wonder how he's going to see his target through that bent telescope. :smiling2:

I think I would be proud of the finish.

Cheers,
Richard

I sometimes get over critical if one little thing gets to me. Like the poor gun scope rtfoe mentioned. Everytime I looked at the model I would only see it & be bummed. Thought the finishes & the build were excellent. PaulE

It is a special scope to see over all the undulations of the ground.

I could of used brass rod as a replacement but thought I would do more damage.
