    Hi Martin,

    Camels are very hairy beasts and they usually have a thick, rough cover of dusty, matted hair over their entire bodies, at least down to their knees. My only comment about your camel is that the surface is as smooth as a baby's bum.

    The colour for a camel should be "camel". Its half way between khaki and sand yellow, with a light touch of burnt umber.

    The camel's neck looks a bit thick to me. It should taper as it nears the lower jaw, but Verlinden seem to have sculpted it in just one thickness. Not much you can do about that now!

    For a touch of real authenticity, try hanging a long slobber of camel spit from the mouth.

    Will you have a figure riding the camel? If so, who? Please tell us.

    Cheers
