Looking very good Peter

[Guest]

Ralph - Cheers.

Steve - Yep, mostly blue today, and much easier than white. I worked on his face a bit more last night, always a risky strategy under artificial light, but he looks OK this morning.

Ian - Many thanks for looking in.

Another good start Peter. I really admire your ability to bring out the facial expressions.. Mine all tend to look the same.

Looking good Peter. He's quite an interesting looking character!

Keep up the good work.

John - Thank you. I find expression is all about the eyebrows (I kid you not).

Andrew - Yes, he has a somewhat 'unique' face.

The coat:

Wonderful colours, I really like that figure.

Andy.

[Guest]

Ralph - Cheers matey.

John - I've just seen someone on the TV who looks just like him.

Andy - Thanks. Bit of an unusual sculpt, but with loads of character.

Morning Peter

Well into the blue and more to come today.

It suits the weather, damned cold still and always wet!

Looks like we are well into Autumn.

Enjoy the blue and have a fun day

Hi Steve

Yes, the blue trousers and black boots, then a bit of weathering. Cold and sunny here - good painting light.

[Guest]

The main part of the figure is now done:



I've put him on a base at this stage, as the weathering looked to stark at first and I wanted to see if it would bed him into his environment.

[Guest]

Looking a good un Peter :smiling3:.

[Guest]

Damn it:flushed: your good Peter, nice base as well .

[Guest]

Ralph and John - Many thanks.

I've also added the water flask and cartridge box:



The awkward join of the water flask strap will be hidden by the backpack.
