discussion 1/32 Scale Royal Garrison Artillery Gunner completed

[Neil Merryweather]

Well that was more intense than I intended it to be, but enjoyable none the less.
Thanks to everyone who joined in along the way, and for those who missed it HERE is the build thread


I wonder how long it will be before I start on any of his mates.
thanks for watching

Hi Neil
That is excellent. Great skill to 'create' your own original. It was really interesting to see how it was done, appreciate the time and effort to do the SBS.

Really good - is it me, or has he a 'smoke' on? (I'm viewing it on my phone, so not a big image) :thinking:

 

[Tim Marlow]

Great finish. Everything just hangs “right”….you made it look easy!

Thanks Jim, it was a bit complicated but also enjoyable. I don't think I would do it again though :upside:

Yes he's got a tab on. it's there in the original picture. Several of them have-I guess they knew what they were doing, but it seems dangerous to me

That's very kind of you to say, Tim. It is enjoyable but it does demand a high level of concentration; especially when it looks perfect from one angle, and then you turn it around...

 

[Tim Marlow]

Didn’t say it was easy Neil, just that you made it look so

Quite simply mind blowing. Simply mind blowing. Even my wife was impressed when I showed her and this is really not her thing.

Very well done indeed.

No elfin safety during that, I guess, and that went pretty much through their lives.

Wow, thank you Andrew, very much appreciated

Outstanding work Neil. A real joy to see. Will you be painting him, adding him to a Dio?? What's your plans?

Thanks very much Steve.
As for plans, If you check out the introduction to the build thread I explain it all.
Cheers

Health and safety wasn't invented till later on.

Neil a most interesting project, makes one realise how much goes into producing a figure. Thanks for posting it.

Thank you John, I'm glad you found it informative, even though I am an amateur compared to those who sculpt for a living
