    This figure is now finished. Unfortunately, as I carried it from one room to another I dropped it, and in trying to catch it I batted it across the room, causing much destruction. I've glued it back together again as best I can, but I'm not sure I can bring myself to spend energy touching up all the damage, as some of it (notably the Mauser, which broke into four pieces) is never going to be put right with paint. Still, I'm very pleased with how it turned out (prior to the breakage), and I learnt a lot in the painting process - which I always count as a win.

          Missed this and just looked in Paul,
          Lovely paint work on a very nicely sculpted bust. Who says good things don't come in pairs. You've turned a perfectly good sculpt to a higher degree with your painting skills. Love the eyes and skin tone. She really looks alive.
          Sad to hear about the mishap though.

          Cheers,
          Wabble
