Panzer Crew Bust

This is another bust I've been working on since the beginning of the year. This is a Young Miniatures bust and it is beautiful - very fun to paint.

Le Groginarde

This is Verlinden's bust of a French Old Gaurd campaigner that I've been working on since January.

Historex Conversion, Pt2

Progress has been slow on this one to say the least. I've been working with Games Workshop green stuff and it has been very frustrating. I read a comment somewhere that working with this stuff was like sculpting with used chewing gum. Ew - but I get the point. It may be good for small details but I should have picked a more forgiving material for my first project like this. Of course, I probably bit off more than I can chew.

I'm not entirely disappointed though when looking at this as a learning experience. I did learn a lot just by trying. However, I still have a long way to go before I get to painting. There are still quite a few details to finish.

Success

Okay! I think I've sorted out the new template and added back all the links. I hope to put up some new content this week. ;)

Under Construction

I'm trying out a new template and while I like the layout there are some issues. I have to figure out how to get rid of the advertising section for example. Also there doesn't seem to be any access to the Blogger dashboard or even the sign in/out link.

However the biggest problem is that applying the new template blew out my link lists which means I have to rebuild each one. Hopefully I will get that done over the weekend as it is a fairly time consuming and tedious task.

Ortona

Here is my latest drawing. It is rifleman from the Loyal Edmonton Regiment during the battle for Ortona.

And Now for Something Completely Different...

No it's not a man with three buttocks, it's something that I've been busy with that has been keeping me away from the modelling bench lately. I have been working on some military artwork. This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I've started off with some pen and pencil drawings of some WW2 subjects but I will be working on other eras and hope to do some coloured artwork as well. I need to experiment some more with my scanner - I don't think the settings are optimal yet.
