Just caught up with your masterpiece. Seeing your progress shots has given me a clue as to how to approach my tiny 1/35 fig. ( to be honest the real first thought was to send it to you),but reality set in and I have promised to "have a go" myself.

One thought,if I may, are you envisioning any spent cartridges scattered about his feet?

Regardless: Outstanding Job

Very well done Andy! (y)

at this years Chicago show where my chap earned a Bronze medal (y)

Does make one wonder what you have to do to score Gold :blink

I've been to the Chicago Show many times over the years. Golds are won, but are not that common. A bronze there is something to be proud of. In my travels, I would feel safe in saying the toughest competition on the planet are the Chicago Show, Euromilitaire and World Expo, (Every four years), and not necessarily in that order!

Bill Chilstrum, one of the premier sculptors around, attended this year and got three silvers and a single gold, his first ever!

Congratulations Andy, well done!!!

Bob
