Hi All
I have posted my latest painted figure. It is Jon Smith’s 120mm Resin Kit of a wounded British Infantryman Neuve Chapelle, March 1915. I have started painting larger figures as my old eyes are having trouble with smaller models. Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks Pete

Pete - that's great! Your painting approach is much different than the guy that painted the kit art. Very nice! I like yours much better!

Suggest you send the pics to Jon and let him take a look. I think he'll be pleased.

All the best,
Dan

Pete, The shako is a neat little touch.~Gary

I'm beginning to think I should do this one also. (Along with the rest of the Jon Smith range :lol: )

Problem is which one to do........ I know all of them :lol:
Let us know how you get on with the spectacles, I did wonder how easy that would be.

Hi Roger, do you still not buy a new figure until you have finished the last one ? I wish I could be that strong willed.

Another Jon Smith figure. Beautiful paintjob.

It is not so difficult to fit the spectacles for the light machine gunner, but I have had my difficulties to paint only the edge and not the glasses.

Next month I will buy his new MG-Team with the great trench part. I think, I will see many beautiful thinks

Pete the most figures I have waiting to be painted is two or perhaps three at the most and that isn't very often. Not so much a grey army as a grey pair :lol:
However if I was to win the lottery or come into some money things would be different. It's the cost of the things that stops me spending over my budget.
Ulrich, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the MG team. I think I will have to buy them in installments but when I don't know. It's the same old story so many figures................

Roger.
