      Hi Tim
      They are nothing short of incredible. You look at the photos and then get to the one with the Vallejo paint bottles and you just think WOW! - how on earth has he done that.

            Thanks Jim. It‘s all smoke and mirrors I tell you. Most of it is just technique and consistency. There really isn’t that much skill involved. Mind you, I have been practicing for about thirty years LOL.

                These are incredible, once again Tim. The detailing is so good.

                I'm working on a 32mm giant at the moment (so he's actually 65mm from eyeballs to the soles of his feet) and I'm not even attempting to paint in his eyes - it's that you look at these tiny figures and think "right, I'll be painting in full eye detail on these chaps" - it's nuts! (In a good way, of course).

                  Very humbling comments there Paul. Many thanks indeed.
                  These have nothing like full eye detail, by the way…..just an ivory oval outlined in black with a black line down the middle. If necessary I then cut it back down to size with the skin shadow colour. It’s more than good enough in 28mm…..mind you, on the couple of busts I’ve done I went for full eye detail with catchlights…..but they were so much bigger LOL.

                    I'd have to put my hand in a vice to steady it sufficiently to paint that finely! That shield is superb!

                      Sorry Tim.....completely missed this they have turned out very nicely indeed!!! A top notch finish as always!!

                      Very well done.

                      And as you said on your KV-7 thread, you would get a lot of the deserved inside!!! :smiling5:

                        Just seen these Tim, fantastic work, looking at the size of them just shows what skill you have.
