Neil's 1/32 WWI Nurse

[Neil Merryweather]

Well Fanny (see what I did there ?)has been primed and part assembled.



'A simple task', you may think, but who managed to break off the carefully moulded pencil and had to replace it with a piece of wire....?


One Job- ONE JOB!

Count me in mate I will follow along and learn a few things.

[Neil Merryweather]

welcome aboard Paul!

[Jim R]

Looking forward to this and like Scottie I'm sure I'll learn a thing or two. The box art is quite stunning to my eyes.

[JR]

The first thing is she related to Matron Neil ?
I shall follow closely , will there be any surgery ?

[Tim Marlow]

Looking forward to this. Cast looks very clean. A subtle element to the sculpt I seem to remember is that she is perceptibly shorter than male figures from the same range.

Box art is by Mike Butler isn’t it? I seem to remember Andy Belsey doing a dio backdrop for it…..

[PaulinKendal]

Nice sculpt, but lots of 'white' to paint - good luck with that!

[Steve Brodie]

Gotta love TW figures, superb. Chair pulled up.

False modesty aside, Jim, I don't know what you're going to learn from me on this. My painting process is always a 'fingers crossed' affair, unless it's some history you're expecting :tears-of-joy: .
I have to agree about the box art though- it's rather a high bar for me :tired:

No surgery John, just a simple out of the box painting project. I feel I owe it to myself after the last couple of epics!
I do have diorama plans for her though.....

[JayCee]

I will follow along too. Always liked a Painted Lady.

It's a very clean cast, took me all of five minutes to clean up (AND break the pencil...)
I believe she IS shorter than the men in the range, I'll take a pic later as a comparison.
As for the box art, you're quite right it's by Mike the Kiwi Butler, so don't expect ANYTHING like that standard from ham-fisted me! I'll be like Tony Hancock in that old film (The Artist?) lol.
Andy Belsey did a superb tent model for her back in the day when Military Modelling was an actual magazine RIP .
