Hello Guys,many thanks for the great feed back on my Maori Chief.Glad you like him.Had heaps of fun making him.Glad you like the punga tree Phil.The green ferns are photo etched ones made by a Kiwi company called Fine Scale.
Brian,many thanks for your compliments on my figure.I have some conversion plans for the Airfix French Grenadier.

Hi John,

Good to see this little fellow finished off, charming portrayal and I particularly like the colouring plus the ground work both offer a realistic view of the subject.

Would be keen to catch up with you off line with regards the Maimeri acrylics and your source for these. When you have a chance of course.

Take care,

Mike
