Excellent repaint on a neat figure Bob. One of your best works IMHO. Really like the vest.

Thank you very much, I am glad you like the repaint as much as me. Always wonder whether you made the right.choice to start again.

Hi Bob,
What an excellent redo on an excellent sculpt. I've heard it said to leave a paint job alone so you can see how much you've improved. Well, obviously you've poopooed that idea and done a super job on this piece. You should be very happy with the result. 75mm is a jump backwards from your usual 54 mm. You gett'n old or what?..............Easier to paint without the mask....

Stay safe........Wayne

You must be pleased with this,Bob.

Often a re-paint or re-do can be the most satisfying as you can feel that you've not let it get the better of you. I hope that makes sense.
Top job anyway!

Wayne and BP,
Thank you both for the great comments, when I first thought of this, I was apprehensive but there is not a lot you can do once its in the Dettol bath but I am very pleased with the result. I still love the 54s but this was one I wanted to improve on.
Stay safe all of you and thanks again.
