Hey Andy

You have done a really nice job on this figure! I do have one thing I hope you will not mind. It is a very minor thing but I believe that it will only add to the extremely well done figure. I would think that if you added a seam line to the inside and outside of the pant legs, using both a shadow and highlight color that it would only add to the figure. You could also add one to the back of each sock/stocking and coat sleeve. This is just my 2 cents.

Well tighten my hempen halter; aye I'm liking this Andy!
So much colour thrown in there. What would Trinny and Suzanna think? :hmmm :D
The base is a wee ripper too...

Tanktrax, hey thank you very much :)

Joe, thank you very much for that advice !!! I shall have a go at it sometime today :)

Cheyenne, Cheers !! :)

Brad, yes the base is made by our very own Ken A and very good they are too :)
 
HI John !!!!

Thank you mate I really appreciate that

I dont think theres enough room for a name plate though unless its a real thin one :D
 
Andy,
Should be enough room on the routered ridge and it will sit at an angle. Make it the size from the top horizontal ridge to the bottom horizontal ridge. If you understand what I mean. Make it as long as you would like and center it.:S
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers
John
 
I am understandings, John :)


Im just working on "Death Valley Dash" and putting him onto a base now then knocked one of his hands off :( So gonna have to repaint that and them try and knock out a nameplate or go and buy some.
