    John, retirement must be agreeing with you.
    Great to see this all-time classic given an airing. This is beautifully painted mate. In every way. The attention to detail on the coat is nothing short of brilliant. This is the most accomplished bit of painting I've seen this year.

    Its always a pleasure to see Poste Militaire classics completed, especially if they have been knocking about in someones grey army for a long time, an excellent result and I am sure you are getting a real buzz having got it over the line, well done.
