Very nice work. Also I'm happy to see I'm not the only one who puts his photos on sideways on. Gives it more character I think. ;) John

Merry Xmas Kevin and Carole, and to everyone else too. John

A very merry Xmas to all you guys out there, and a happy New year John

Merry Christmas everybody John

Thanks a lot fellas, and a big thank you to Andrew for switching the picture around. I reckon it's Kev that's been on the Xmas snifters. What do you think guys? Merry Xmas John

Thanks guys. Happy Xmas to you all. John

This is my latest rendition which I call Michaleen the wise gnome named after Michaleen Oge Flynn from the movie The Quiet Man. Of course Michaleen in the movie wasn't a gnome but the actor Barry Fitzgerald bears a resemblance to this gnome. I scratchbuilt the spectacles and he is...

Message to the Moderator. Hi Kev, do me a favour and twist the image the right way round please. I haven't entered the 21st century enough to know how to do it. Thanks mate. John

This is my latest rendition of the 90mm Andrea knight that I have had sonce it was first released back in the day. It has been repainted more times than the Forth Bridge but I think I'm starting to be satisfied with the results at last Hope you like it. Feel free to comment. John

This is my rendition of Brian Blessed who played Duke Thomas Beaufort of Exeter in the 1989 movie Henry V. I have used Young Miniatures bust of La Hire for this as he has more than a passing resemblance to Brian Blessed. I removed his helmet and created a chain mail hood from milliput. I...

What a great bust. Brilliant subject and excellently sculpted. The artist who painted this did a superb job. That face-with just the right amount of sneer, fantastic! The colours used are really nice, and that body art-wow! John

I'm never going to paint knights again! There's no point. This is simply the best knight I've ever seen. Superb. John

I told you a nurse would go well with this scene. Glad to see you're listening. ;) Like what you've done with this so far mate.

Nice work Kevin. I like the bows on the medals and the medals themselves have been given that special Peart Polish.

Very nice atmospheric piece. I can just sense the menace coming off him. Great work on the waistcoat and the brickwork is very realistic. I must admit, I feel sorry for poor old Bullseye the dog, being permanently next to this nasty man. John

Me too Tom. Both are cracking pieces of sculpting and I too am glad to have both originals. Kirin did some great stuff and you just can't beat Elite for quality. John

I I've now put my version of this bust on works in progress. It doesn't look anywhere near as good as yours but I'm trying. John

Hi, Recently FlyingDutchman has put on PF his version of the Andrea bust Templar Sgt and he has made an excellent job of it. I put a comment on telling him about my own version and he suggested that I put mine on so here it is. I painted it some time ago and was never happy with the look of...

This is a nice rendition of a really hard to paint bust. I have this myself and found there to be too many wrinkles in the face and neck for my liking. I filled these in with milliput to smooth the skin out a bit. I also used photos of the actor James Gammon who this really resembles. The eyes...

Nicely painted bust. Would have added a bit more shadow to the face to get more depth but I'm nitpicking really. There's a great video on YouTube that shows this bust being painted. Well worth a look. John
