so glad that you all think he turned out well, i very happy with him, and even his face looks good as well,

just keep at them Ken, is what i found, the faces still scare the life out of me to do, if half/half about doing them dont do

 

[monica]

[Lee W]

Gruesomely great stuff Monica

Lee

 

[Dave W]

Just caught up with this and don't know how Ive managed to miss it.Some fantastic work going into this.The building and everything looks brilliant.Ive not seen dead soldiers modelled before .They look great .Im glad you didn't model them with limbs blown off because I would have needed some counselling after viewing them!.

 

[Guest]

This is really coming on Monica the building I particularly like

 

[monica]

thank you Scott, Lee,Dave,Terry, for the very kind words glad that you like it,

i try to show, what happens when a sniper gets you, but dont wont to go over the top,

but would like to do one of the Sean from privet Ryan, where they hit with the 20mm when on the tiger, that would be a great mini dio,

 

[Guest]

Great work moni you know me the more gory the better but I suppose a sniper wouldn't be able to blow a leg or arm of shame. Mind you you could put one of them standing next to an old gas boiler and the sniper misses and hits the boiler blowing it and the solder to pieces, sorry getting carried away again, very well (if restrained) wounding of the soldiers. Wish I could paint figures half that good.

 

[Guest]

Yay blood! awesome stuff Monica, that looks really good.

Haha that scene from Saving Private Ryan is one of my gruesome favourites

 

[monica]

hi Ken im so glad that you like it, oh believe me, i would lov to do one just as you say, but i don,t think i would get away with it how ever much i tried ,

it make me so glad that you like the figures , i do try my best at them always a task, to be done,that was most of the day on these 3 guys, and im happy with them

ta Patrick happy you like them as well, that scene and the landing are done so real like, and to me thats what makes the movie so believable

 

[monica]

well finely got my battery park, with an on/off switch,

and yes they do work, not so over bright, but there is low light,

and how long they will work for who,knows may be mr ohms

so have all that in and working just need to hide the box and wires need some play to be able to change the battery's,

so can get the rest of the rubble all done and then start the figures,

oh and miss fuzzy has to find a new friend to rub on ,

Fantastic! The lighting just gives it an edge.

As for the moggy...well I wouldn't stand for that nonsense!!!

Lee

 

[monica]

glad that you like them, i think the same thing, just a gloomy light,

once i put a door on ,then just make some type of removerable 3 sided box thing is all i can think off ?

hi yes these moggy are all no good as you see ,thats why i lose days on end of work time, the only good one

is the tabby she sits ever were but on the models,

 

[Lee W]

I think I should let my friend tigger round to play...
