    Nicely done Roger... everything looks aces.

    You did remember to paint the back of the fig didn't you?

    Look forward to the finished piece.

    Also remember that as well as a front and a back, these 3d figures also have a bit in the middle (the bit joining the front to the back) ;)

    Cheers,
    Billy :)

    Now it's getting confusing. The flat world is far simpler.

    Thanks very much Joe.

    Ron, thanks. The tunic colour is really due to using an acrylic undercoat and a lot of luck. :)

    Roger: It looks good and one or two days in a oven and the shining disappears. Or you use a very thin layer at last over the uniform.

    Ron: I will publish a photo later how easy it is to make that colour with oil

    Good work Roger, the uniform is looking good mate. Still a bit shiny but nothing a few coats of dullcoat wont fix ;)

    Thanks very much Ulrich. I will save those for future reference, just in case I ever paint another WWI round fig. ;)
    I have done a little bit more today but probably not much is noticeable since the last pic.

    Hope you are having a good birthday.

    Looks good. But I'm getting suspicious... you're only showing one side of the fig... Roger! You didn't paint the back, did you? I knew it!!!!
