Hello everyone. I just signed up a couple of days ago and wanted to say hi.

My name is Jacob, I live in Denmark, and my username is simply my initials.

I've been building all sorts of models on and off for the past 30+ years (since the age of 8, I guess), having focussed on 1/72 and 1/48 aircraft, though. A couple of years ago I picked up figure painting, as I wanted to put some figures in a 1/35 diorama, and that encouraged me to try larger figures and busts. Thus, to this day, I've completed three 1/16 figures and seven 1/10 busts, the most recent ones being the two guys below (Life Miniatures and Young Miniatures respectively). Sooner or later I'll present some more stuff on the "completed"-page and create a vBench too.

All the best!

Thanks a lot, Brad. I'm glad that you like my fire figther, as I'm pretty pleased with him myself .

Skål!

Welcome Jacob, looks like you have a talent for painting figures.
Cheers

@Steve, @Nap - thank you very much. And especially thanks for the great tips and links, Nap. I’ll most definitely look in to all of that and maybe even take part in some of the competitions. This is truly an amazing and really inspiring site and forum to be part of.
