I've built a few of these Tommy's War figures. The fit is very good and they paint up very well.


Will be watching this one

There's a bloke in our club who only builds 54mm figures and these look very detailed and I think you'll do that very well indeed Steve

 

[Robert1968]

Defiantly will be watching this one ( like the look of the tommy kits ) but never built one so will be keeping tabs on this build with eager eyes

[Steve Brodie]

No pressure then guys and gals!! Might just put him back in the box, lol . Nah got the base colour on the face and uniform so would be rude to him !!

I will watch for some tips Steve

 

[Steve Brodie]

Bit of a disaster last night, removed the masking from his hand on the right arm, and the hand stayed in the masking tape!!, completely separated from his arm. Quick email to Darren at http://tommyswar.co.uk/ this morning and a replacement arm is on its way. now that's what I call service.

 

[monica]

oh no,but what great service to replace the arm,that's just so good,

Flesh base coat on and 1st and 2nd shadows, photos taken straight after paint, so will not be so bold by the morning, next 1st highlight, 2nd highlight and painting the eyes, followed by a very weak base flesh filter, some red pastel for his cheeks ( after all he is running), No stubble - not the done thing;

Hi Steve


Those 'Tommy's War' figures look very well sculpted and well cast. And it's good to see some WW1 figures on the go too.


I'm looking forward to seeing this figure progress. It would be very nice to see a few figures from this range finished as a series (each it's own model but would look great as a set).


Good start with the flesh tomes


Cheers


Paul

Another hour or so, blending colours on the face. The lifecolor set are working really well;
