    Hi everyone,

    I apologize for not introducing myself before I posted a message earlier. Some background on me: Active duty Air Force (18 yrs) stationed currently in southern Spain. I started painting models as a teenager and didn’t really get into painting figures till about 10 years ago (started out on 1/72, then moved up to 1/32) and then wanted to do more detailed figures, so I did my first 90mm figure (poste militarie) in 1998 and been hooked ever since. I haven't been able to do another figure since (been kind of busy lately playing in the desert...if you know what I mean), but seems I've gotten some more free time, so my interest in getting back to painting has spurred back up (do get me wrong, I never stopped buying figures, much to the anguishes of my wife ;) ) Well that’s about me in a nutshell and thanks for letting me be apart of a great site!!! :lol: (isn't technology great!)

    P.S. here’s some my pic's of my first and only attempt so far of painting a 90mm figure (back in 1998)...will have to do some restoration and repair on him..those military moves seem to take their toll.

    I'm not an expert in figure modeling, but I do like the result you accomplished here. Great work. One question, what did you use for the grass effect on the base, looks convincing. Although a newbie myself, I extend a warm welcome to you.

    Kerry,

    Welcome to our world of madness :lol: :lol: This is a great hobby where you could get your mind empty after a day hard work.
    Your figure looks great.
    I really want to see more of your figures that you painted.

    I have this figure in my gray army, very well sculpted and cast, truly a vintage figure.
