Started doing model figures again after a 40 year absence, big learning curve as different paints now. On my fourth now, a WW2 Soviet pilot a "Night Witch" and getting better I think. Any advice from modellers on here?

Chap down the road a couple of doors does miniature vehicle restorations and we've often talkedabout joing our skills and producing a dioramra, but it hasn't happened yet. Do you just do busts?

Amazing work! Wow, such detail and composition! Couldn't see much difference in the paints. Maybe I was dazzled by your incredible work!👍👍

What is the base material you carved these from? They are fantastic.

It reminds me of that old song. "I Ante Got No Body"

Thanks, no I don't do dioramas as I don't have the room for them!
