      I was hoping to show some of the figures but I'm afraid they are soaking in oven cleaner their first visit of many I would suspect.

        To hot to paint anyway. Just treat yourself to a cold one - tomorrow they'll be fine.

          Jim, Lets hope that's what it is, it doesn't help when you struggle with figures at the best of times. Like the suggestion about the cold one though.

              Scottie, you're doing brilliant so far that you don't need to hide the figure in the shadow. There's nothing to hide...put some light to it and we will help anywhere we can which I'm assuming you might not need.

              So far squinting and straining my eyes it doesn't look too bad.

              Cheers,
              Richard

                  Figures are looking good. Hopefully with a little more light we will be able to see him in all his glory. How many figures are you planning to do mate??

                    Hi Steve,
                    There will be 5 in total but I do have the option to add a few more I will see how the space looks.

                      Well here he is again with more light and the next one he is a bit shiny he needs matting down.

                        Why on earth would you hide those in the shadows? They both look great to me.

                              Figures are better than good. Figures always add so much and these will be the icing on the dio.

                                Thanks guys really happy you like them and appreciate the kind words. I still need a lot of practice but hopefully they will improve over time. My big problem is getting the paint thickness right.
