Hi guys

thanks for the positive comments. I a bit of a lull at the moment, Tina has recoved nicely from her op but starts her chemo on Tuesday Time will tell how it affects her, but the prognosis is positive.

found time to do some work, removed; the shoulder was a bit wide, and started to add details to the torso.

WAAF looking good! and so glad to hear positive news about Tina. You're both in my thoughts and prayers.
Andy

[Peter Gillson]

Thanks Andy

In a way we are really lucky. We know that chemo will destroy Tina's immunity, making her very vulnerable to infection. fortunately today is the 100th day in Guernsey since anybody has tested positively for COVID-19, for the moment at least we are a COVID-free island so we will not have to shield or self-isolate.

Hi Peter
Glad to hear that Tina is doing well. Wonderful that you are Covid free. Stay positive as I'm sure that helps.
Sculpting figures is a skill I really admire. The WAAF is looking great.

Rick, Steve, Jim - thanks for the kind words.

changing tack a bit; not sure if this made UK news but the founder of the airline Blue Islands (and Healthspan) died this week, and here is a little Flight path tribute from one of his pilots :

Good to hear that Tina is recovering well Peter. Must be a difficult time for you both. Best wishes.

Hi Guys

thanks for the kind words for Tina - chemo is Yuk! We are not the rorst to go through this so it is a matter of taking it one day at a time.

here are a couple of photos updating the work so are:

the torso - more detailing needed
the head - work needed on the hair
the microphone 'horn' - little details needed.

Good face,Peter.
I find sculpting ladies is always a challenge, because I want them to be attractive without looking like hookers.
And of course with a WAAF subject we naturally expect the archetypal 'English Rose'.
Looks to me like you are getting it spot on!
