Hi Rod,
Better and better for the mastery of the brush.{eek3}
Wonderful achievement and very original installation.
This soldier "asked his thoughts" to be in this battle!
It is worthy of a competition piece "master".:rolleyes:
Again thank you and well done my friend.
Friendly.

Guy, Igor and Jeff, thank you for comment on my work, appreciated.

That is a great figurea Rod.
Well done and thanks for posting it.
 
Another of your beautifully painted figures Rod brought to life with your paint brush. Thanks for sharing him with us.....Joe
 
This is a masterful job Rod, true artistry, almost better than the photo of the original.
 
Good morning Guys,

Thank you Brad and Joe appreciated your comments. As I already mentioned, it was very pleasant painting this little fella, the face sculpt is the best, make easy to painting. But I did struggle to recuperate the left hand, (the one holding the pipe) it was broke when I got the fig. I have to made some sculpt to repair, something very difficult on this scale 54mm...

Again guys thank you for the comments...

Have a great day
