    Neil,
    The figures look great and the rifle sacks turned out very well.

      The work on those figures has really come out great. They fit the scene so well.

        You've more patience than I have Neil. Love that you have given them different expressions.

          Very kind Joe, if only I was capable of that! I think it's the result of the idiosyncratic sculpting to be honest

              Thanks Jim, I have to admit I'm relieved because as you know I don't really enjoy the painting side of this hobby.

                Great result Neil. It was worth the effort to get those guns inside the protective cover. It has really added an air of realism to the model and the end picture of them all stood together really highlights your hard work and attention to detail.

                  Note also the use of inflated life preservers on the heavy kit- I'm going to try for that as well....
