    I picked this figure up at Euro a couple of years ago and finally got around to painting it over Christmas. I'm a big fan of Mike Good's sculpting and I wanted to try painting 1/48 for a change. It is quite a challenge, particularly trying to get the face right. Not easy. Anyway, hope you like..

    Eduard,

    WOW! very, very nice!. You have done a fantastic job on our Red Baron. I'm waiting for it to start speaking.

    Thanks for posting - it's always satisfying to see our figures painted and on display. Keep up the good work.

    Edward,

    I really like this. I have it in my Grey Army. I agree on the quality of Mike Good's sculpts. I hope to see more from him and Model Cellar in the future;)

    With regards to the photos, you might want to try shooting your pictures against a coloured backgroung such a blue. White tends to bleach out the colours.
