Just stunning... still following your build very closely. Keep it coming... but I am afraid I have to hire an expert to make sure that your work is not really 1:1 scale. Sorry mate...

Well been busy on all fronts of late ,but one area i have to put extra effort in is small figures are these are not my favorit subject. I have enjoyed some thing different with the para military side, well heres the start these figures are still a working progress. . DSC07646 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. .I gave this a hornet head the rest is out the box. . DSC07645 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. The young boy as complete out the box, the face was hard no 12 oclock shadow or skin folds wrinkles ect . DSC07643 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. The pair together. . DSC07652 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. Next up the old lady i have reworked the coat a little bit of Fur make her a posh lady. Rgs Mac

Well dicky after a good look at your pictures i based the old girl on you in drag. Thanks guys for the kind words on the figures. . DSC07666 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. I made some minor detail changes to this figure i am about half way painting this. . DSC07668 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. .This figure got a hornet head the face lines are strong ,but again will be filltered out and as the old lady about half done i thought it would be nice to show as a working progress. . DSC07672 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. The group together. Work has started on the Avant Car that will be next in focus. Rgs Mac

Well i did this a few weeks ago not close to being finished but its the start to the car i will have it with loads of house stuff strapped to it and stores inside. I thought about an etch grill but seeing as its wedged under the tank you wont see it. . DSC07686 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. I did this with Halfords i am yet to polish it and smooth out the paint a little. /. DSC07687 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. The wheels will recieve a dust and grime job. . DSC07686 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. Both doors will be open now i have a load of small stuff to paint. Mac
