Haha, the trap springs shut.
Before you completely lose the plot.
Could you please explain why, you think the centre of gravity is wrong on the image I posted?
I know I am, and I'm sure the rest of the viewers would like to be educated.
I don't think we were fortunate enough to have your education.
Thanks in advance,
Carl.

you just proved Keith's point.
Tell me Old Grumbler, are you Arthur Scargill in disguise? You see he could never accept when he was beat, and instead of seeking a compromise just ended up alienating every one. I am not saying you are wrong, but you are saying none of the opposition is right and that's that. Mate life is too short, and if you are looking for enemies, don't make them within our hobby, they were doing that in the letter pages of Millitary Modeller 40 yrs ago.

I made a valid remark about the figures balance. I told you what I think about it. I applaud your desire for more education unfortunately I'm not your teacher and wouldn't presume to appoint myself as such although I would willingly pass on all my knowledge to you for an extremely hefty fee. Good too that you are sure about speaking for all the viewers (nothing like a self appointed spokesman for everyone eh?) but I did mention ad nauseum that this info is available in any book on artistic anatomy. I get it now though that you haven't the FREAKKIN foggiest what I was on about, you never did have did you? come on admit it. It's OK. By the way, why am I about to lose the plot? Listen Carl, stop your sarcastic postings for a minute, it's like getting nipped to death by ducks here, go on to Amazon and get a book on artistic anatomy and rather than keep wasting everyones time use your own time valuably by educating yourself. TTFN.

Who's Arthur Scargill? He sounds like a great guy.

Well said Steve
With your S**t attitude I would have thought you unable teach anything, as for paying.
There's plenty of sculptors on here that post, and are prepared to answer question gratis.

For what it worth, I agree with grumbler to a degree. The figure's stance looks uncomfortable to my eye. I like Moz's sculpting but did not think this was one his best (the uniform and face are great though). I am not an anatomy expert so its personal opnion. Personal opinion is valid here and to express it one should not have to prove their position with anatomy figures, a CV that includes formal art training, or a proven ability to do better.
However I agree the key point is that this is not a critique or sculpting thread, it's painting ....... the key point is that no critique was requested. As there is an option to request critiques and the painter in this case did not do so....so one should respect that. It seems to me that this string has swung wildly out of control because those engaged in verbal combat are desiring the last word at all costs.

If we are now down to the last words, can I ask Moz, to sculpt Arthur Scargill so those of us that don't know who he is or what he done can research and be better informed in our lives. The man is now 75, and led his troops into disaster, but all the same he was a Battler, and I am sure Old Grumbler, who asked me who he was, would enjoy all the Bloody mindlessness of the coal strike. Perhaps he could be sculpted in coal, but it would have to be done in cheap foreign imported. We could even have a policeman bashing him over the head, now that would pose a nice diorama for entry into the civilian category at Euro Militaire.

Like I said in an earlier post, I like the piece, both in terms of sculpture and painting! The composition looks ok to me, for what its worth!
I do however find it hard to understand what motivates anyone to attack, dare I say assasinate someone elses work, just because they can! But hey thats just me!
I'm pretty sure the modelling community will make up they're own minds, and make the ulitmate judgement with they're hard earned cash!
