Hi there Bob, Cool... your jeep is really nice, love the paint, very good detail, New figurines seems to be top notch, the close up pictures show high quality, a good change to see flowers in a dio, they add lots of color & relaxing atmosphere (beer subject: flashing to my mind comes a lot of superb beers brewed there in the USA: Anchor, Sierra Nevada, Rogue... ) Later, Jelly

Jelly - thank you buddy appreciate it. Im kind of a beer snob i guess. I really do not drink any of the beer here, with the exception of Shinerbach out of Texas. I tend to buy Spaten and the local German market. I got spoiled being over seas for many years. Dave - Oh you would have loved it my brother. nothing like making a snot ass private dig a hole, make him fill it, then dig another..............Allllllllllllllllll Dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Looooooonnnnnnnnnng! Then PT his ass till he cried...............God I miss the Service.....Sigh! Bill - Ok I accept that.........LOL Ok sorry about the slow progress just been really busy. Now for some head :0 mr sort of happy! Mr. my underwear is really riding high! Mr I think Im Elvis! First GI completed Working on several others then will pick the ones I want. Some highlights still need to be done but all coming along. Bob

Good to see some progress Bob, you've been slacking! Shiner Bock is my preferred as well...even had the chance to tour the brewery when I was spending some time in East Texas a few years back.

Fantastic work on those heads... the first figure really do look great! Are those heads from Hornet? I plan to order similar set for upcoming GB build here.

Gi,Deano,Leon - thank you gentlemen Bill - thanks buddy, Shiner is some tasty stuff buddy. Kiwi - thanks Mate Andy - hey bro. thank you and Yes they are hornet heads, the only way to go Mark - thanks, eyes were always the problem for me. There are may different ways to do them. I spent the money and got a good 10\0 brush and that helped immensely. Steve - thanks buddy Dave - thanks my brother. Took a while and a lot of practice and reading. Im getting better I think..........LOL. I just dont do enough figures but thats about to change...... Mad - thanks buddy. Bob

Good morning Bob, A superb finish brother! Your practice in figure work has paid off handsomely. That and the veggies are a nice touch. The scene kinda reminds me of Saturday market….only without the drum circles or oppressive fog of patchouli oil attempting to mask BO. Dave

Nice looking scene all around Bob. Love to see 'non-action' scenes like this. How about 'Bargain Hunters' for a title?

Excellent finish there Bob that is a great wee scene you have created !, 'barter time' sounds quite cool ?

Dave - LMAO HIIIIIPPPPPPPYYYYYYY SMMMMAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHHEEERRRRRRRR!
Mark - Thank you.............Hmmmmmm "haggle"
Bill - Thank you, nice to take a break from destruction and see something laid back and relaxed. Now "Bargain Hunters", that resonates well.
Deano - "Barter Time" that works as well. Thank you.
You guys got the brain working here. Like what I am hearing for a title.
Bob

Gotta admit I thought this was going to be good; OOPS its great. The peaceful shopping, the outstandin' figures and Jeep; sorta "the quiet, after the storm (of war)" really well done.
