Hi Paddy,

And I thot I was the only nut in this thread (worse pun).

Hi John,

Hoping that this next instalment revives the plot.

Ive got to admit that the work here has been a little tedious (even for lil ol me). Im trying to sculpt flower girls and so far, I've faced setbacks after setbacks. The oils are taking a long time to dry and the sculpting has been meh.

But getting there with this round. The paint has dried enough to handle and I've added more putty to sculpt the legs. Why not just use the commercial legs you may well ask. Indeed why not? But there are only so many commercial legs per set and I've got to keep the costs down. Anyway, the legs are generally too short so Ive got to sculpt them from thin wires.

I completed the sculpts esp on the legs, then painted them. You may notice that some of the faces are men... Im an equal opportunity modeller....hahaha. These and the ones without legs will be placed further behind.

To the left, I've added the previous 3 front girls. I've also ptd two bkgd ladies. The comparison is to get a consistent look to this grouping.

Here are two statuettes sculpted from wires and painted.

I pinned some of the figs into two groups. Then set up a scene with some of the foreground figs. As you can see, some of these bkgd figs without legs are not consequentlai.
