The level of skill and detail in this is just incredible, Tony; fabulous work! Mary

I wasn't quite sure how to highlight the metals without overdoing it and getting a 'garish' effect; 'how to's' are welcome. And if I'm getting better faster, it's because I rely completely on PF and the inspiration here. I don't have any other modellers or shows in my area so have never seen...

Just beautiful Patrick...great job on something so small! Mary

Here are a few more...still lots to do but I'm pretty happy so far. I would like to add a special thanks to Sergey Popovichenko for his awesome inspiration; if it wasn't for his stunning work I wouldn't have had the courage to try this piece. And all of your for being my 'cheering section'!;) Mary

Thanks guys, you're all so encouraging! Forgot to add I'm using acrylics and printers' inks...no oils on this one as I want to see how well I do without 'cheating' with my oil paints :notworthy:

Hi Guys, Thought I'd let you see how he's coming along (Pegaso's big Crusader is driving me crazy so took a break:confused:) Had to prop him up for a few pics. I think my painting is slowly improving, yahoo!!:D Mary

Hello all, I thought I'd post a quick review of Xenophon's olive wood bases that I recently purchased. They are beautifully crafted and came very well packaged. Highly recommended, products and service are excellent. His member name is Kisifer here on PF. Mary

I have a good friend who has just gone through a painful separation. He is fascinated with historical models, so I am going to try and paint one for his birthday. If you were to paint a particular figure for a very special gift, what would it be and for whom? Mary

Beautiful work, David, can't wait to see how you finish this. He has such an arrogant expression, really lifelike(y) cheers, Mary

Great job on such a small figure! Mary

The first volume was very good and well worth the money. Just ordered the next one. Mary

You guys are going to laugh at me...I now have NINE figures in my grey army waiting to be painted:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: and I haven't decided to stop yet! Is yours out of control? Mary

I think it is very difficult to portray the horrific suffering of the Holocaust without the figure looking 'comic.' The painting is very well done; removing the bird on the shoulder I think would add to the power of the piece. A daring and commendable effort! I must add that I am impressed by...

Nice to meet you, Robert. This is a magnificent piece; the face is superb! Mary

Your work is awesome, Sergey. It's truly an inspiration! He has a nice little butt for an old guy:ROFLMAO: Mary

Hi Pete email sent. Mary

Hi Carl, I dry fitted the knight and then the horse parts individually, but I couldn't hold all the parts together to put the man on the horse...it never occurred to me there would be a possible problem like this. the joys of modelling....

yes Carl...it flows off his shoulders and sits behind the saddle on the horse's rump. No way should this happen in my opinion. I was worried it was something I did wrong but can't see what.

Geez Brian, if you can paint heraldry that beautifully freehand, don't worry about your photos!! Awesome job(y) Mary

Many of you know I'm working on the 90mm Pegaso Crusader...I have almost completed the knight but have a big problem. While working on the horse, I glued the saddle in place and decided to 'dry fit' the knight. The knight itself was built in stages, the cloak, then the cowl hood, then the head...
