    Deen + Dunya

    This is a 1/10th scale bust called Yildiz, by Pedro Fernandez Works. Hope you like it. And for scale: Pedro Fernandez Works also produces two other excellent ethnically diverse female busts (Brooklyn and Anusha) that are not military and not negative - witches, enslaved, naked, etc etc...

    Deen and Dunya

    I do have difficulties knowing where to place some of these figures. 'Figures WWI and after' doesn't sound quite right, but she's certainly not Fantasy or Sci-fi - that Sony Walkman definitely places her in the real world. Anyhow, this is a first attempt at painting a proper figure after...

    Ganesha, hand-carved in Rajasthan

    I got this wooden statue on a trip to India earlier this year, and was inspired to paint him by the many painted wooden icons I saw while I was there. This proved very easy to paint - nice and big, not much shading required, and the slightly rough detail of the wood carving made precision...

    He's done - I'll put some proper pictures in the relevant completed section.

    Ganesha, hand-carved in Rajasthan

    Well we've still not moved to Norwich - yet. Our house in Kendal is off the market, to be relaunched in Jan, so I've been able to recommussion my hobby room and get some painting done! Just started on Ganesha.

    75mm, Xen and Yawa, futuristic bikers from Neko Galaxy

    Those is rather slapdash - I stopped painting for a few months as real life intervened. On coming back to it I discovered i) lots of mould lines I'd overlooked, and ii) my painting had become really rather rusty. So I used this to get back into it, which made it very enjoyable, as there was no...

    75mm, Xen and Yawa, futuristic bikers from Neko Galaxy

    So this has been a long time coming (massively disruptive house move in progress - nowhere near completion even now). I'll put a proper set of pictures in the relevant Completed section.

    PaulinKendal destined for the dustbin?

    I've been completely distracted from modelling for the past several weeks, with a major life-change in the offing. After twenty years happy residency in Kendal in the Lake District, this London boy is heading back down South. We're in the (slow, stressful) process of moving to East Anglia...

    Ganesha, hand-carved in Rajasthan

    I'm a very lucky boy. I've just got back from a month in India, and had a fabulous time. As a bonus, I brought back this splendid sculpt of Ganesha, which I'm intending to paint. It was shrink wrapped, and when I removed the wrapping the figure smelt strongly of petroleum. I'm guessing it...

    75mm, Xen and Yawa, futuristic bikers from Neko Galaxy

    I've just started on these two for a simple vignette. I've already got into difficulty with the hoverbike. I got a half-decent finish with the airbrush, but failed to seal it with varnish. As a result, I've scraped away patches of the microns-thin layer of paint while blocking in her jeans and...

    1/12th scale Kuton Figurines 'The Rocketeer'

    So I dropped and broke this figure into numerous pieces as I was about to glue it to the base. I've stuck it back together again, but not touched up all the chipped paint - not sure it's worth the effort, but we'll see. Generally very pleased with the result (prior to breakage, that is).

    1/12th scale Kuton Figurines 'The Rocketeer'

    This figure is now finished. Unfortunately, as I carried it from one room to another I dropped it, and in trying to catch it I batted it across the room, causing much destruction. I've glued it back together again as best I can, but I'm not sure I can bring myself to spend energy touching up all...

    1/12th scale Kuton Figurines 'The Rocketeer'

    Here's where I am with the rocket pack. Some way to go still.

    1/12th scale Kuton Figurines 'The Rocketeer'

    This is coming along nicely. I'm torn over what colour to make the piping on her uniform. I think I'll leave the piping around the bib in white. But the rest, i really don't know. Red? Blue? Tan? I'm stuck at the moment. And I think the chrome beading on the helmet is OTT. I think I'll make...

    Flow Improver in rinsing cup

    I just mean the pot of water you rinse your brush in every 30 seconds - this thing!

    Flow Improver in rinsing cup

    Add five drops of Flow Improver to your rinsing water cup - do it now! I was struggling with adding Flow Improver, Thinner Medium and Retarder to my paint to achieve a smooth, opaque, flowing consistency - essential for detail work, of course. Generally that meant I was adding too much of...

    Liquid Chrome by Molotow

    This is VERY rough - Vallejo Skin Wash ink over brush painted Molotow. I'm going to redo it, now I know what I'm after.
