Really like the Dukw, he should be careful of seam lines, the one on the winch takeup reel just pops out at the viewer. You should also introduce one of the many the wood grain techniques to "Art", I suspect he would do well with it.

Thanks for your kind responses, moon puppy and James! You have very keen eyes, I didn't notice that seam before. I'll tell AI to be more careful in the future. What is the wood grain techniques? and what's it purpose?

 

[moon puppy]

Wood grain technique? Well there's various ones but I like the one our pal Bob Letterman wrote up for us here.
Simulating various kinds of wood

(also he has mold lines left on the motorbike handle bars)

moon puppy - that's an interesting article from Bob. I think AI has his own way of doing wood.

jose - many thanks for your kind comments!

andy - thank so much for your kind compliments too!

You have very keen eyes to see that seam on the handle, I just saw it now.
Art Instructor doesn't have land line and/or Internet access at the moment, but he's applying for a Hi-speed Internet service that doesn't need land line. But then again there'll be language problem. I don't think he can communicate in English.
