Thanks for showing us how you do this. Your skills are greatly appreciated.

VERY nice conversions. Keep up the good work.

With the economy like it is and fewer new toy soldiers coming out then those of us that do conversions will have a market!

Sorry I don't paint anymore. I just "Color Code."

Great job on those Scott! I love seeing your conversion work, to bad you gave up on painting them, I think that would really bring these guys to life.

Scott, how come you gave up the painting?

For me, painted figures have to go on a shelf. My "play" figures could still be painted someday, but I can still store them in plastic shoe boxes w/o worrying about damaging the paintjobs. I also painted "toy" style figures for $$$ for the local gift shops and it wasn't fun anymore after my second child needed so much care. (she's OK now)

I did paint the Father Corby figure from the BMC Irish Brigade bagged set for a local priest.

Thanks for asking!

My wife's GGG grandfather was in the 116th Pa, part or the Irish Brigade, and was wounded at Gettysburg. The Corby figure is the best figure in the bag.
