This one is finished:

Your finish is getting more subtle and nuanced and can only be described as Sumptuously understated. A very fine piece.

John - 'Sumptuously understated' is praise indeed, and I'm humbled that you like my effort.

Andrew - Very many thanks.

Peter,
I have to agree with John. You achieve a level of painting I can only dream of.

[Guest]

Thanks Scottie. I never thought I'd enjoy such a modern figure, so it's great to have a new field opened out.

Hi Peter
That is superb. These modern figures suit your current style perfectly.

Thank you Jim. I've just ordered Tamiya's 1/16 Modern US Army Infantryman figure - what's happened to me?

[Dave Ward]

Peter,
very nice indeed. How would you rate the ICM model? I've been looking at larger ( than 1/35 ) figures, but having been defeated by a couple of MiniArt 1/16, I'm a bit wary............

Thank you Dave.

Miniart 1/16 figures are terrible and I wouldn't recommend them to anybody. Some are makeable, and I still have a couple in the cabinet, but they are way below par compared to Tamiya and Dragon. As for ICM, this one was superb, though of the other three I've attempted I only succeeded in completing the Viking - the others have been a bit under-detailed.

I would recommend some of the Tamiya's to get you into the larger scale. Rommel, the German tanker, great-coated German and IJN pilot are probably the best.

Morning Peter,
Wow what a fantastic finished piece! He looks brilliant. Nice to see you tackle the modern figure.....Glad he didn’t give you much trouble :thumb2:

[Steve Jones]

Outstanding! Glad to see you have found a new genre of figures that you like. Are there many modern warfare busts you could do??
