    Morning Steve

    Sorry to hear you have been feeling iffy. I think the news doesn't help health issues. I'm having a bout of sinusitis and sleeping a lot too. I've also spent some time U-Tubing and found the BBC's 'Totally British 70s Rock and Roll' - some wonderful obscure acts like The Pretty Things, Babe Ruth etc. I'm currently obsessed by the Heavy Metal Kids' 'Hangin' On'.

    Blue trousers it is for this man then. I'm keen not to cover up too much of the tunic with equipment so I may re-position some parts - it really needs the folds in the skirts of the tunic to bring it to life.

    Raining here in the Beautiful South, but warm - good virus incubating weather!

        Cheers Steve.

        He's done:



        The last session involved painting the legs, painting and attaching the equipment, and making a sling for the PPsH.

                  Hi Peter
                  A tremendous trio. All of them sublime but No1 just edges it for me.

                      All three are equally stunning.

                        Thank you for your kind words chaps.

                        Rick - Raquel's only 75mm so too small for my eyes these days I'm afraid.

                            Morning Peter

                            Lovely work on the Russians trousers, great contrast, and just enough "stuff" too
                            The trio look excellent, what ever will you do next?

                            Later start today as I've been shopping already to avoid the crowds, and admire the empty shelving, why toilet rolls?
                            What is it, does Corona virus give you the runs?

                            Back home now and possibly some..............................

                            SWMBO has that look, so probably no modelling today!

                            Have a good day choosing the next victim

                            Regards

                                Rick - In compensation:



                                Steve - Our local Sainsbury's is out of toilet rolls - madness or what? May do a Miniart Greek next, having been inspired by Dave W. Glad you like these three.

                                Colin - Thank you.
