Brilliant John! I particularly like Benny Hill with his arm in the air, and of course Office Crabtree!

Thanks Pete, it's the priest that makes me smile the most .

The policeman just pissing past the window

Right JR.........I see Madame Fifi has knicked Dorothy's "Ruby" slippers! Now she and Toto are stuck in OZ forever. Truly a splendid job on the figs........they do bring the whole scene to life.

Looks great, the interaction between the figures is really working

Hi Paul, thank you, the bread guy is one of my favourites as well .

Been doing quite a lot of figure painting today so hope more will be suitable for photos tomorrow at some point .

 

[JR]

Well after what feels like hrs of painting very little seems to have progressed.


Got to get to grips with the eyes and other facial features.
Still its slowly getting there.
