Nice progress Brad.
I hope your version will be more realistic and have some mud on his boots etc. Not like that squeeky clean dude our good buddy Steve posted!

[Guest]

Aww more stuff to try and do, lol, ok muddy it might be...maybe... Not... Dunno... Don't panic... Help...

[JR]

Ignore everyone Brad.
Steve will insist on the helmet having camo and Ron will want that mud and half a pizza base for the base. :smiling3::smiling3::smiling3:
Crack on, just enjoy, and panic later.
John.

Well hi all,
Apologies I've not been around, due to work and personal stuff, which is ongoing. ,well enough of that....
I will attempt to get around everyone's builds in due course for a catch up, however, thought I'd best post my effort to date, hoping time doesn't run out.
So here we go...
Cheers...

John.

[Steve Jones]

Well done Brad. It has turned out really well. You must be pleased with the final look

[Guest]

Thanks John and Steve.
It's not done and dusted yet, but I needed to get something done for the gb.
Hopefully I can add see some more to it ., weathering etc to do yet.
I thought a bigger size figure would be easier to get things right, how wrong I was, so I doff the hat to figurine painters.

[Si Benson]

Coming together nicely Brad. These figure painters make it look easy but it certainly is not!

[Guest]

Cheers Si,
yep you're right, they do.
However, although I've made mistakes, and it ain't that good, I'm learning from it, and that's what it's all about.
I think after the gb has finished I'll strip it back and restart without rushing it, we'll see..

[Guest]

Very nice work Brad.

[Guest]

Thanks Peter, that's very kind of you, still have a couple of days left to try and add to it. Again thanks.

[Guest]

So due to lack of time until the 11th as I have travel now to get to my Remembrance parade, I reluctantly call my effort finished.
May I take this opportunity to thank those who have partaken the GB and to those who have given support in there encouragement along the way.
Thank you.

[Steve Jones]

Well done Brad. It was a great GB to be part of and I hope all goes well tomorrow at the parade
