Thanks Ben
These 1/6th ones are very enjoyable for me but you are right they are very big even compared to the 200mm ones you paint.

This was a commission so I was duty bound to complete it. I'm still trying to catch up to you and Smudger with the napoleonics but failing miserably at the moment mate. I just can't get the precise detail you guys achieve - maybe because I'm using the 6 inch roller brushes I use on the 1/6th stuff.
All the best
Gordon

This is so darned good, I have just placed my phone on the windowsill, walked up my terraced street and looked back.

His bloody eyes followed me all the way.....way better than a burglar alarm I reckon.

I think you're onto something there Paul. A full cutout of a squaddie with an SLR in your front window may reduce burglaries somewhat....his full zapata frightens me!

Super nice work on this!

That is superb! The little details are what make it for me - the butt number, last 4 and blood group on his body armour, and the blacked out cap badge. And a proper Rifle Green beret too. A difficult colour to get right, too often it's either too light or too yellow. And as for the gringo tache! A real steely eyed dealer of death. Just awesome.
