The flag looks nice.

I see nothing wrong with your efforts. Maybe you're just being a bit hard on yourself. The face on your figure is as well done as any commercial release. This figure shows a lot of promise.

Guy is a professional actor/model that does a lot of work casting for historical films/documentaries. He's currently in Arizona shooting some stuff. His timing couldn't be more perfect...his hometown is Buffalo, NY.

Nice sculpture. A shame Andrea does not give it's sculptor proper credit.

I did a quick sketch of Frankenstein years ago and thought it was time to do a painting. Boris Karloff's version is probably the most celebrated. This 5" X 7" painting was done using black, white, and orange gouache. It's a tricky medium to paint with, but offers some great possibilities. Have a...

Colin, Very nice, but WOW! is he big. :)

I'm curious as to why you do not include the ramrod on the rifle?
