    Hi Guys,

    Here's what I've finished this year. As you can see, it's been another productive year at the Perth purple patch painting factory.

    Outstanding stuff, Tony! All of them are excellent, but my favs are the stretcher bearer and the kilted soldier.

    All the best,

    All of them are fabulous.
    Is the stretcher bearer a conversion from the Lewis Gunner ??

    Thanks very much for your kind comments guys,

    Marc, the Stretcher Bearer is a coversion from a Masters In Miniature Lewis Gunner figure made by Phil Walden.

    Mark, this large Naked Army figure wasn't the one I took to Euro. I wish it was, it's much better than the one I did take. I just couldn't get this one to fit in a box that would allow me to transport it safely.

    Roger, the only scratchbuilt figure in this group is the bust of Lt Gen John Monash. The rest are either conversions or straight OOB.

    Tony, beautiful work

    Wow Tony:

    Just beautiful work. I noticed particularly the way you do what I call the five
    o'clock shadow. A soldier needing a shave, or several days of beard growth.

    I believe your technique for that is the best I've seen so far. Really well done
    and definitely creates that illusive "illusion of reality" as I like to call it.

    Geez, Tony don't think I have finished that many figures ever, let alone in one year and with that quality.

    Tony,
    You've completed an excellent body of work of exceptional quality this year.
    Well done.
    I'm amazed not only that you completed so many figures but you also managed to fit in a trip to Euro Militaire in there as well.
    It's also been great to see the advances in the quality of your work over this year in particular.
    Cheers and thanks from an appreciative on-looker!!

    Thanks Mikko,

    It's been a very productive 12 months and 2009 isn't over yet mate. I still have three figures on the workbench,one of which may be finished before New Year's Eve.

    I must admit I'm running out of steam now. The weather is getting very hot here in Perth, and it makes it difficult to paint. The acrylics dry before they leave the brush. I can only paint at night when its cool enough.
