    Excellent work Christian, and picking this kit up for 15 Euros must be one of the best bargains of the year.

    Like the others have said, very skilled painting on that face. Everything looks
    so natural and realistic. The way you've rendered the growth of the beard!
    Well, . . . I'm feeling like Kermit the Frog, over here in Kansas, Ms. Dorothy.
    I'm green with envy. But I won't give up, will keep trying.

    Very nice work (y)(y),
