Funny Bob that so many figures we see actually do look like someone . Could well be him, will be bette when I fing his missing arm. Left it off to paint for some reason and now can't see it anywhere. Mind the bench does look like one of Jim's nightmares !

I think I say it every time, but your figures are progressively getting better and better!
you should be pleased with your self mate:thumb2:

Hell JR............I thought he was a wounded Vet from the Revolution what lost his arm in the scrape! If you can't find it you are welcome to use my back story, if you wish :tongue-out3: Rick H.

I'm wondering if the squaddy in the middle of the civvies is performing 'I'm a little teapot' :smiling5:

As Si says "better and better".

These look really good to me John. I can certainly see you are making progress. The eyes are fine, by the way. They are not the easiest of things to paint at the best of times. I just paint the white in, usually with ivory paint because I find it flows and covers better than pure white. I then paint a T shape over the eyeball to represent the pupil and top shadow, and then cut it all back to size with flesh colour.

Might well have to do that Rick, not searched the bench yet, it makes Paul's look tidy ! I'm now working in one corner , can't help being unt

Thanks Tim, will try the ivory and the T method on those two I need to finish
