Thank the maker I'm not the only one! I got your back Bud, it's going to be a long season! I got way to many Giants and Pats fans around here in good ole Connecticut! Sweet! A fellow Cowboys fan! But its not easy being a fan of tha boys. My personal felling is Jerry Jones needs to step aside and let someone more competent to run the show. But thats just me. Ill be PM'ing you after game days bro. Well cus and disscuss the game. Good with you? Fellas, I have got the figs primed and even got a wood base for the dio. But im stalled up some with some personal issuses and ill try and have a productive update for you fellas soon. Thanks for following and for your wonderful comments and support. Thanks Spud, i hope i get back to tha bench soon bro. Thanks all, Gary

Jerry Jones is the George Steinbrenner of football! As soon as he sticks his nose into anything other than signing the check, the team goes to S&!T!!! PM away! If the game isn't on the tube up here I have to catch the highlights on espn or football network.

Hey fellas, Thanks you guys! I actually got some painting done earlier today. Im close to starting the base but im still undecided on what im gonna do with it all. Im coming up 'Blank' - if you will. Ill get it sorted out at some point soon. Anyways heres what i got done this morning. DSCF2869 by BBD468, on Flickr DSCF2871 by BBD468, on Flickr I still need to finish the head of the figure standing aswell as adding a holster to his belt aswell as paint the detail on the collars and shoulder boards. Im pretty much done with the head on the sitting fig but still need to paint the body. I pretty happy with what i have so far even though the uniforms will not be accurate, just didnt want to go black. Thanks for lookin' fellas, Gary

Mighty nice figure work, my man. You're right in not rushing a base, take your time in thinking one up-one to match the excellent job this has turned out to be to date. By the way, I'd not be too quick to advertise the uniform color as inaccurate, I seem to recall reading somewhere that self propelled gun crews did not always wear Panzer Black.
Regards, Mark

Thanks so much fellas! Im really happy the way the heads turned out. Best ive done in 1/35th to date. MXperessions vid helped tremendously. Been preping the wood base, getting it ready for a seal coat before starting ground work and the like. While it dries over the next day or two, ill try to finish the figs. Gary

Thanks Mack! I followed the DVD steps as close as i could. I even got a steel pan and bakeing paper/parchment and did exactly what he did when mixing the colors and i cant argue against the results. OH, I also made sure i didnt make my coffee too strong. hehe! Shakey hands are no good for face painting! ;D ;D Dicky, Thanks so much fella! That means alot. Gary
