"Your Grace" will be sufficient

At last you are starting to learn your place

I didn't take SBS picture of this. Too much layers and too little time.
But I'll add some words about this in the text if it's of interest.

AMAZING!
I love how these little (often unnoticed) utilitarian "things" can become such wonderful models or even mini scenes!
Definitely a "keeper"!

Thanks Marty. The scene is so small, this will definitely be the Star of the vignette. (With some concrete, groundwork and building)

Twice today, and for a minute, I've thought you took the plunge and wrote a comment or a critique about one of the models or experiments I post here on an regular basis.
But I'm reassured.

Wow. That is lovely. I think from now on I will send you all my odd bits for painting as well. I raelly like all the coloring and shading....not to mention the fine detail of the strapping abd wires.

A great really nice joint effort piece by you and Gordon.

[Alexandre]

Thanks gentlemen.

Some day you need to give me a painting tutorial and tips.

Really look forward to reading the article on th Modelers Annual.

I just finished Photoshopping the photos and editing the text. The article contains some outstanding techniques and suggestions. It is as superb as the model. -- Russ
