Cheers Mate,
It is what is, part of this wonderful world of Hobby all of us love.
I hope you are having a great weekend!

So far today isn't bad, Italy 28 Scotland 22 with 15 mins to go, the next game though might be grim.

Cheers Simon

Made lot of progress today,
This time i mixed 60% magic sculpt and 40% greenstuff, i built the lace one by one.
I added a thin linenof glue, added the putty and shaped the lace, added texture using crossed lines with the exacto knife, place the knife in the middle of the buttonhole lace and then added the details of the edge of the lace using a needle, thst way it resembles the fine embroidery lace.
I must say i am really please with the result, and , as most of the time when you have an oopsie and re-do something the finla product look much better.

Wow that does look better than the ill fated version, really like how you've textured the lace, almost like the figure itself had a hand in the makeover!

Oh and England beat Ireland so two awesome results yesterday.

You get used to it,
I've started with 75/54mm, it was tough at first , but you get used to it.
Best regards.
