Hugo A stunning piece, well worth the wait. Hopefully, my kit is being put to one side by Steve at Euro, so not long to wait. I will make a point of visiting your stand to personally congratulate you on this fabulous creation. What's next Vercengeterix, Arminius? whatever the theme I'm sure it...

Hugo I've been salivating about Boudicca since you first announced it. So I'm looking forward to getting it at Euro next month. As for the Carthaginian elephant, what can I say, my wallet will be screaming NO! but I will probably override it. Looking g forward to meeting you at Euro John

Hugo I'mglad to hear that things are improving for you. Looking forward to seeing the long awaited Boudicca and the Carthaginian war elephant which I expect to be spectacular. Best wishes John

Hugo great to meet you early on the Saturday where your enthusiasm was evident in the work you produce and the time taken to research each project. I'm one of those who enquired about Boudica and I'm hoping that I've secured one. Fingers crossed as its a stunning piece. John

Hi what do I need to do to be able to add a post to Market & Commissions. I currently get the message You have insufficient privileges to post here when viewing the forum?

A fantastic bust which with a bit of facial remodelling could be made to look like Julius Caesar.

Hi does anyone know if the Italian company, Soldiers sf, are still in business. I have a vague recollection of them merging with another figure manufacturer but cannot remember any details (n) Their web page hasn't changed for months.

Ross will be coming along with some members of Faversham Military modelling club. We have a show on the 28th June which I've added it to the events calender but HOW do I include the poster, Ive tried copy and paste which adds it but it doesn't appear in the listing?

After yet another Roman Signifer bust from Young Miniatures I decided to modify it to create a Cornicen, just to ring the changes.

Thank for the +ve comments - the newspaper is a decal created from news headlines of the time. Very tricky to apply but worth the effort. John

Joe From the research I undertook it seemed that the US uniform was in a continuous state of flux and a mix and match approach seemed appropriate. As for the knife it was apparently supplied by various manufacturers, the earlier ones with a leather sheath and later one fabric. But I'm no expert.

Its a long time since I posted anything but here goes. This is the Historic Art Miniatures 'Normandy 1944' figure that I've just completed.

Andrea's prices on Historex site I was on the point of buying the 54mm Andrea Catapult group until I noticed the increase from £82.60 to £114. That has detered me I must admit. I do wonder if stock already purchased at better rates has been hiked up to make a quick buck. I think Historex...

Roy Hunt I had a mail this morning telling me the awful news. I met Roy on many occassions at various model shows and found him a veritable gentle giant with a ready smile for everyone. I'm sure I speak for the whole of the Faversham Model Club when I say he will be sadly missed. My heart...

Hi I'm intending to paint Pegaso's Roman Gladiator "Secutor" as a negro but have never painted this flesh tone before. What base coat should I apply and any techniques for flesh tones would be gratefully received. Oh yes I should say that I paint in oils. Ta!
