Those are great! Is the officer on the left in the final picture masking up for Covid?

Very nice indeed.
I particularly like the mounting officer.

So much so I built one myself.

The chap with the mask seems to have lost his sideburns.

The camera is merciless.

Excellent contribution to this project.

Best wishes,

Chris

If they had worn mask, there would have been less deaths…maybe a natural mask? You’re right, I’ll give him a gew grey highlights on the beard.

Hello Roland,
these are beautifully painted figures!
The color scheme is really great.
Your painting seems very authentic to me.

The figures are beautifully painted, and yes, the beard is better! Nice sculpts, as well - his work is immediately recognizable, I find - solid but animated.
