That's a wonderful pair and I think it's great the way that they are both looking at something.
Cheers

Thanks Huw, they were lots of fun & pairing them hopefully helps tell a small story.

Superb painting on both figures. Cheers, Andrew

Thanks guys, yes really was quite taken by this pair when I saw them in the flesh
- "charming" is spot on Phil.
Subtly of detail, depth of undercuts is amazing, especially leather jacket on RFC guy.
There's a third figure, I'd have liked to show as a Brit trio, unfortunately I've misplaced him :-( So have to await resupply

Agree Darren some neat casualness about Copper State range which has been enjoyable to bring to life.
Good news is now doing a long overdue Tommy's conversion for Andy.
Excited to be working on this & loads of tiny detail too.
Share more here in due course.

Thanks Julien, all acrylics - 5 different types used on this pair.
Andrei Bleskin is one of my favourite sculptors - yes finesse & anatomy of sculpting, especially those tiny hands, are sublime.
Here's final look round this little RNAS Pilot.
Will share RFC Pilot 360o photos later on sister thread.
