Just amazing artistry.

I'm in awe of the realism that you create with paint!
(As for the pea - It does look as if he was tortured before consumption!)

How dare you Andy!
Pea was naturally defrosted post blast freezing & gently skewered without a whimper.
Surely that cannot be described as "torture"

Don't think the RSPCA might be too interested in pea wellfare. You could try the RSPeaCA?

Or you could try your MSP or MP - make sure you contact the one in charge of the vegetable department, and stay clear of the fruit cake department

Finished photos of this little guy - not sure team - too bright?

Looking good Mike! I am betting some of those Model Cellar pilots would look equally good with your mad painting skills..... !

I'd love to paint them Mike, haven't got any yet though - one day!
However did take advantage of sale @Ultracast last month.
Invested in series of RAF pilots who will look good gathered together waiting for next sortie
