Wonderful painting, Günther. I really like the scene you've created.

Great job and good luck with the new figure.
Cheers Joe. Yep, sounds like there's something funky going on with the stars!
It's a great figure, I'm sure you will be happy with it when yours arrives. Looking forward to seeing your version of him too (y)

Thanks everyone for looking and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it, and it's motivated me to get on with the next part of the figure.
Cheers again
