    Looking good Neil, for an 'old' sculpt I reckon the sculptor should be applauded!

              I never really expected this to happen because of my historic fear of painting, but there it is.

              It was more enjoyable than I expected it to be and it took longer than I expected, but that might be because of the real life distractions I have at the moment.

              And it was more INTENSE than I expected too, I don’t know how you oil painters do it!

              As I have stated already , it was quite a learning experience, but it has ‘slain the dragon’ of these old sculpts of mine, so there will be more appearing periodically.

              But now I've got to get back to the D-Day Gis.

              Thanks everyone again for all the encouragement- it really has helped.

                          That's a fine result. Totally your own work so you can be double pleased.

                            That's impressive work! I love all the frogging, the sash and the turban - lovely stuff!
