Well well well. Fantastic to see you pushing the boundaries. With your brush skills i'm sure it will be a winner. Good luck

No hanging about there Pete!

I like these Mitches 'V' busts by Pavol Ovecka. I believe this is meant to be Shia Labeauf in 'Glory'.

Hi Simon it's actually a second the zip was missing in some parts so I removed it completely, I got it at a show for £10 so thought I would have ago as I've never even tried doing a figure/ burst before.

Oh , this looks slightly different from the Toon Army Pete.
Good for you having a go , can;t see you not doing a good job.

Your bench is what Mrs R dreams of , tidiness.

Hi John, very different the 1561986028752.pngis closed from the summer and workers (minions) are on holiday so the Panzer IV will have to wait for the paint shop to reopen.

Some of there holiday photos.

Hi Pete

Very nicely done, and it looks like our man - not easy to get a likeness. Will you be doing more?
