    Hi Robert

    Lovely painting there , hard to believe the scale , you've really brought the character and setting to life

    Always good to see your artwork

    Why not enter something in the class of your choice in FOTM , maybe also into the Vignette & Diorama comp , please take the time to consider and also do vote as well

    Thanks for sharing

    Look forward to the next thread

    Happy benchtime
