Nice start, Bodge!

How frustrating/irritating was it that there is a seam line right around the sides and front of the binoculars?  Big Smile [:D]

I like your technique for texturing the fur, it came out nicely.

Looking forward to more progress shots!

Regards,

Lookin' good, Bodge... Got an Ostfront dio planned or are these chaps just for fun & "Maybe someday"?

Too bad they didn't mold one with the straw boot-covers... The size of those things lent new meaning to the phrase, "Standing" guard...

Hi guys , i just bouht these little guys and put them together the same night i purchased them. They went together without too much trouble and on the whole looked really good, i even kept the original heads rather than put hornet ones on but the fur on the coats didnt seem to be rough enough so i re texstured the fur on all coats . This i done with applying liquid glue to the areas and when nearly dry i stippled with a cut down stiff brush then i teased it out with a sharp pointed needle. Who knows i may even get round to painting these guys soon?
