Four 1/16 Dragon Figures

[Guest]

Ralph - Thanks my man.

Mike - Hopefully, this will be as bad as it gets. Day three and it's only got slightly worse. As I've said before, I'd rather get it over with and hopefully develop some antibodies.

hi Peter
Firstly take care of yourself and recover soon. All the best to your family as well.
The figure is sublime as always I think the fur is excellent and must be hard to make look 'furry'.
Please reconsider your decision. Your work gives pleasure to many and your involvement with the forum is highly regarded. I posted on the Coronovirus thread and would hate to think I have caused you upset.

OK Jim and thank you.

I've been rash and said things I regret, which I apologise for. As you know. I've got the Coronovirus thing, which is making me feel weird enough, but added to that are some marriage difficulties which are adding to some already existing deep, deep bouts of depression and carpet-gnawing attacks of anxiety. It all makes me very, very sensitive to apparent criticism. I knew I was doing the wrong thing commenting on the Coronavirus thread and wish I could wind back time, but.....

Anyway, normal service will be resumed. I'm going to stick to purely modelling matters from now on. Should get this one finished tomorrow.

Morning Peter

lovely work and a great release from the pressures of the world at the moment.

The cold clear snap has arrived 1 C this morning, though I have been up too early!

Have a restful and restorative day and paint when you can

Take care

Regards

Cheers Chaps.

Feeling a bit shame-faced this morning, so apologies to all.

It's the turn of the MP40 and Panzerfaust today, then a base and weathering. It's a bit of a boring figure, so I may team it up with another in a vignette - depends if the other ever arrives from Hong Kong.

[Tim Marlow]

Stay strong bud......nothing to feel shame faced about.

[Guest]

Cheers Tim.


The first figure is now finished:





I ended up using a pre-made and painted Panzerfaust as the kit one looked a bit dodgy. Unfortunately, the decals disintegrated as soon as I toughed them and were useless, so I've left it plain.

Hi Peter
Well I keep saying it but that is superb. He is certainly one of my favourites. Hope you're feeling OK. As Tim, a fellow sufferer, says stay strong and keep painting - models that is not the spare bedroom :tongue-out3:

Cheers Jim - glad you like him. He'll forever be associated Coronovirus unfortunately. Feeling lousy, but thankfully no worse.

Lovely finish Peter :smiling3:.
