No complaints from me Alan..... Coming on very nicely!!

 

[AlanG]

His mate Wolfgang wants in on the painting action now. So an nice Italian camo scheme will be done for him

 

[eddiesolo]

That is coming along superbly Alan, love it. Wonderful dio board and the figures are coming along a real treat.

 

[AlanG]

Cheers Si. A lot of work gone/going into it but it keeps me happy

 

[AlanG]

Wolfgang has his Italian camo now

 

[Tim Marlow]

Camo paintwork isn't easy, but you have really cracked it Alan. Great stuff…..faces soon?

 

[AlanG]

Yeah i have to make a start on them and the hands at some point :flushed:

 

[Tim Marlow]

Trust me, it really is easier than Camo patterns…..

 

[GerryW]

Great work and patience there!

Hi Alan
Those figures are coming on really well. Perhaps we are being unfair to study them in isolation. When we look at the photos we are just seeing one figure but when placed in the dio they will be considered part of the whole scene.
You're doing a cracking job here.

Wolfgang and Amadeus take cover from British Jabos

 

[Mark1]

Gonna be a fantastic end result Alan, your doing a great job with every aspect :thumb2:

 

[GerryW]

That's looking excellent - you sure that this is your first? :thumb2: :thinking:

 

[AlanG]

Some more figures (victims) to paint :flushed: 3 quid off evilbay. Need to remove the old paint off them first maybe. I think it's acrylic so IPA should do it.

Certainly are Gerry. Unless you count the small 1/72 pilots i did as a kid? lol

Dettol or Mr Muscle oven cleaner will.

Looks like you're getting the hang of figure painting. They're coming on very well indeed.

It does take while but I found once you got into a 'flow', it got a bit quicker.... That said you have a got a fair few figures on the go!

Keep up the great work.
