Possibly the longest post I have ever made :P

But on a serious note, at this moment, many parts of our world are confronted with overwhelming difficulties posed by the scourge of the COVID-19 virus. Let us all do our part to minimize the spread of this virus by being mindful of our hygiene practices, remain calm, cooperative and optimistic. Together we can definitely ride out this storm.

Keep safe.

Taking a short break from the 1/16 scale commission to work on this painting assignment from Rado Miniatures. This figure is sculpted by Radek Pituch to which I must compliment that the animation is particularly well captured. The painting on the Platanenmuster smock and Erbsenmuster trousers are painted with a mixture of acrylic paints from Vallejo and AK Interactive Gen 3.

A quick and fun project I must say and I am looking forward to painting the companion figure. 

Some work in progress shots of the painting.

Finally done with the renovation work. Moving on to the groundwork and then the painting.

Continuing work on this resculpt of a 1/16 scale figure from AC Model for a collector. The binoculars is from Alpine Miniatures whereas the other accessories are from my personal spares. There is still more work to be done for the winter trousers and the M42 smock before I can move on to the groundwork and commence painting.

Cheers,

Just begun on a major overhaul a 1/16 scale figure from AC Model. It has been a long while since I sculpted anything and this is a great exercise for me to get reacquainted. The general pose is quite strong on this piece but I just felt that the details could do with more refinements.

Cheers,
