Hi Peter
That is superb. I do like these more colourful figures.

Thanks Jim - Nice to get away from field grey.
He's done:

Just the hands holding the guns to do today. Again the quality of the finish on these parts wasn't great and I did have to scratch and replace some of the fiddly bits.
A couple of arty shots:

The legs sprawled behind him on the right are those of Nelson, just hit by the sniper's bullet.

Jon - Many thanks.
Steve - Morning. You're forgiven - I hope you've had a relaxing week. Yes, off to Lewes for a few days. They all sound a bit sleep deprived, so no doubt it's my turn.
Steven - Many thanks for looking in. Glad you like him.

Sorry not to have replied sooner chaps. I'm currently at my daughter's place learning how to be a Granddad. I'm glad to say that the old nappy changing skills have not deteriorated in the 15 years since I last used them. It looks like I'm going to be spending quite a bit of time here over the next few months, which is seriously going to affect the time spent modelling.
Steve - I would do busts exclusively if I could afford to. In terms of value for money [the amount of time they take to put together] I have to eke out a meagre budget with cheaper plastic figures.
Peter - I'm glad you like him. I was pleased with the way that this one turned out.

Morning Peter,
Sounds like a good plan from Peter, for the next few weeks/months/years.
All that feed, burp, nappy change, sleep and repeat, then deal with your grand daughter inbetween!
Hopefully back to something like nearly normal soon
Have a good day
Regards

Fernando - Thank you.
Peter - I've been thinking along those lines.......
Steve - Granddaughter's having a blast - everyone else is knackered.
