Gorgeous Monica, how long did this take you? I am amazed at the speed you and Ralph can turn out figures. I spend ages jut taking them out the box and putting them back in never mind actually sticking paint on them. That gold trim looks really impressive, just don't know how you do it

ta Graham,Joe for such nice comments so very much appreciated,


the gold was easier to paint than the red as it bleed,to much and would not stay put,

 

[Guest]

Another cracker from you Monica.


As I have said a face to be proud of and exceptional work on the gold lace.


The red is also very well shaded and you have painted the mandolin? real well.


Overall a top notch bust from your workbench

much appreciated comments Tony so glad that you do like her,


she was only a few days but long sitting on her,no nagging so was able to work,


They were very clever the chinese,as your said,but there is just so much more,as well,


how they did there clothing from very early times as well,so much is owed to them,
