I've been working on this guy for a little while now and I think he's finally turning the corner. Dolman miniatures 90mm kit - Scratchbuilt base.

I like the Snoopy WWI Flying Ace coffee mug, Jack!  I never noticed that before.

That's cool and hilarious.  Nice job so far - the base is awesome. 

Thanks,

Dolman Miniatures he said.

Yup; get to image 30 and it just jumps to life.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

BUCKS COUNTY?!  We are practically neighbors!   I'm just on the other side of county line road in montco! 

 

As I said before on the facebooks....looks awesome!

Excellent work on the jacket. I figure the rest should be a cake walk. Very, very nice job. I'll bet John's brother Jim would love to see the finished product.

Finished from the waist up - except for his hands which are up next. Added a satin coat to his flight jacket which I think made a big difference!
