hi John, Patrick, thank you so much , you know that's what i was hoping to hear that the figures are ok,

Good work Monica.

My cats are cleaver. They go on the table, I have seen the evidence, but they are always smart enough to get down before I come home....

[monica]

thank you,oh Ian, they must be scared off you , my just stay there and look at me,

Figures are looking good Moni! As for the cats...I would have shaved them and used their fur for brushes...they'd soon stop eat and taking the brushes then...what am I on about!?ops: I wouldn't of had a cat in the first place :P

Just caught up with this one Moni and it's going very well love those horses , I've got some to build in the near future so I will be along to ask advice on them due to me never doing them before.

Those cats are amazing they look so real mind you I do think there slightly out of scale

Hi Moni,

Nice absolutely nice progress on this build. 1 Horses looking good, nice shadows and a realistic colour.

Those figurines good very good those highlights and shadows on the clothes are looking spot on the details perfect.

really love how this is coming together.

cheers Richie

hi John and Richi, thank you both for the nice comments it is real appropriate,

well when you do I will try and help as much as i can,and be glad too , well the cats are 1.1 so maybe just a tab big :P

that is great to hear Richi, i put in along day on them today,so I,m glad its payed off , the horse,s are tricky ones to do ,

I keep scratching them with my nail, don't have long nails to model ,ops:, Im quite happy with them they turned out well,

just a little bit of a touch up , and add the rest off the tack and gear,,

[Guest]

Honestly Monica? I think those figures would look a lot better with heads on.

[Guest]

...Um.. Moni, ?

I didn't want to say this because I'm not sure if my eyes are going bad, but it looks like one of your horses has his right front leg facing the wrong direction...
