Wizard prang old chap.....top hole!
in respect to your post about Roger Saunders, Michael Perry (one of the Perry twins, possibly the most well regarded and prolific sculptors in the miniatures field) lost the lower part of his right arm in an accident, and relearned sculpting with his left hand. Just goes to show that talent overcomes adversity.......trouble is, in my case, lack of talent is the adversary.....

Neil. Very nice and a good looking base too
Thank you kindly, Tim.
I have heard of the brothers Perry but I didn't know that about Michael. I am well impressed.
Mind you, when you have a passion you kind of can't help yourself pursuing it somehow. I'm pretty sure most of us would find some way around a disability like that to keep on with our hobby. In fact I know of several members of this forum who have some quite serious difficulties that they overcome.
Respect to all of them.
Thanks Lee,
I used the same old horrible flock with red and blue in it, but this time I muted it with a green over spray-I'm much happier with the colour
Thank you John
Wonderful work Neil, as with others here, you have achieved something I would never dream of trying.
'Very good job old chap...one good swig of the char and off we go for another scrap with Jerry...'
Self criticism is healthy in that it will spur you to better yourself. Denis is one terrific build from scratch. We will see more from you I'm sure but make it less than 8 years Neil. :smiling2:
Cheers,
Richard

Thanks very much , Joe.
Cheers John. I know what you mean but you get quicker results if you paint figures OOB .....
Awfully good of you, old boy!
As for the eight years, my AFS Fireman bust has gone a little quicker, and should be ready for moulding in the next few days.
Thanks all for the kind comments
Neil,
I think you are being to hard on yourself. that is a 1000% better than I could ever hope to do.
