Totally gobsmacking as usual paul, i'm always in awe of anyone who can sculpt like this. You had me a bit scared though with the first pic of the body , I nearly spat out my coffee !! cheers tony

I've been watching this from the back, and it's up to your usual standards Paul... Fantastic, brilliant etc etc.

One little known fact is that when John asked "where would be a good place to sign the Magna carta" it was Billy-boy that said "I thinks it's best at the bottom on the dotted line as usual sir " :-) :-) :-)

And are we being a little historically sneaky with the English leopard?

Frank Skinner admitted he should have recorded "three leopards on our shirt" for that football thing:-)

In awe again Paul at your sculpting skills. I do love these step by step threads you make, watching a master at work is a real pleasure.

Funnily enough I actually knew that and will back you and the Nerdy Freakoid (this being Colin by the way).

OK glad that's sorted

Well here he is just about finished

few more things to do like rivets on the helmet and another strap on the shield but that's about it, its going to Mitches models and should be ready in kit form by early next year

Superb ! its a black art Paul this sculpting , if i had a go he'd end up looking like Morph!!! Does it have to go to the mould makers unpainted or are we going to see him with a bit of colour in his cheeks? cheers tony

[Guest]

Cheers Tony, im practicing a black art, mmhahahahahaha.............sorry, it will go to the moulders before painting so I wont be able to get some colouring on it for some time yet ops:. I still have to get Boudicca finished so that will keep me busy

Old Bill is looking mad now, wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley. Nice work Paul. I'd be a Morph creator too if I tried sculpting a figure.
