Congratulations, first of all, on your perseverance! Very well done, from vision to execution! You know I love your "standard" size figures, but I really think these 40mm soldiers were made for you. The Trident range provides sufficient body and uniform styles for you to construct your big-scope dioramas without having to sell body organs to pay for them! Combine that with your ability to convert figures, and there is almost no limit to what you can do with these. Well done, Daniel. And as always, thanks for sharing your art with the rest of us!

Pretty good, mate!

Cheers

Beautifuly done Daniel what gourgeous work.
