Jeremy- Thanks mate... had to work yesterday unfortunately so today is my best chance.
Tanker- True... its green but not my favorite shade. LOL
Dave- Me? YEP! But best part my wife's liver indicator came on few times... she rarely drinks you know. LOL
Dupes- You need to know two things about me... I build slow and I love to talk! LOL Remember my Tiggy WIP... 41 pages. Everybody enjoyed it I think...
Gary- I WISH! I regret not ask the crew if I could ride in it. Doubt it... it belonged to the island and they use to haul in supplies and trash back around the island. Too cool!

Carl- Thanks buddy! Leon- Thanks mod! Like your title... sounds like a big shot than mine now! LOL Robbo- LOL My wife is going to love this when I show her tonight... thanks mate! Boss- Oh yes its about 90-95% done... I am taking my time until Dicky builds something with wings. I made him build a ship and it worked so now it will be wingy thang next... just watch! Spud- Only 31 pages?!?!? DAMN! I better slow down... thanks for the friendly reminder my friend! Guys- Nothing exciting... found the way back to my bench last Sunday and started painting the figures. FOUR of them... why?!?!? But I think they should be easy and fun because there are not much personal gears on GIs and plenty flesh on those French girls... Looks like I don't have light blue and red paint for the bikinis... off to hobby shop today after work. LOL

Luigi- We sure have met already... we drank plenty of Italian wine then you promised me you will send me some of your stash, remember? Jeff- I stepped on horse crap the moment I left the hotel property. Was walking backward while talking with my wife and friends. BIG MISTAKE! LOL Gary- Thanks bro! I wasn't happy with one of the female... skin was too orangish so I fixed it tonight. Looking much better now... no pic yet. Bill- I still think I can finish it before 2013... LOL Things are much slower finally for now until the annual audit begins at work next month. I'd love to break my personal record with four completed builds in a year... Dicky- You forgot some critical information... TSK TSK TSK Blog started: APRIL 6th 2013 Views: 10721 Pages 31 Vehicles Completed 0 Chaps(esses)Completed 0 Number of blogs delayed by this one 1 States visited 22 Figure bust completed 1 (1/10 Young Miniature) Mojo lost 1Now that's more accurate... Thanks! Boo- Glad you liked... thanks mate! Always great having you drop by! Bones- Figured you were in mood for some flesh this time... LOLOL Leon- No worries... I love doing figures. Just ask anybody here... worked on them tonight. Applied base coats on the clothes. Nothing exciting at this moment... but I admit it was fun painting on female specific parts of body. Off to bed now... gonna make my daddy Carl happy.

Deano- LOL! It was pain in arse spraying flesh on those figures. Not my favorite part of figures painting! I didn't want for them to have same color of skin you know. Sprayed heavily thinned pink on some skin for sun burn... its beach diorama for our sake. LOL Carl- Well, better Duck's than rear of our friend Dicky or Gary... bet you'd agree with me. Luigi- Loved the pic on my FB... you should have posted it here too. I will post it when I have the chance. Originally I was not planning to add rust because I was advised not to... but now I am tempted. Maybe little rust. LOL

Nice work on the figures Andy, skin tones are tricky but you seem to be on track buddy That duck- bus hybrid would be a fun build for sure

Guys, I'm afraid I was the hold up today. Andy was too busy eating breakfast with me this morning, so he didn't have much time for the duck.

Guys, I'm afraid I was the hold up today. Andy was too busy eating breakfast with me this morning, so he didn't have much time for the duck. Now there is a pair to draw too it looks like Andy thinks he really slicked ole BigJohn and BigJohn has the grin of the sly fox who just made out on a fast deal. Have to say they both look real happy in any event.

Great to see you had fun and, most of all, that there's another non german kit in Andy's stash. I hope he got the ODitis from you, BJ
