Gentlemen,

First let me say, Manstein's Revenge, this is a great vignette, very nicely finished.

But guys, as a caution, let's keep the comments above board as there are children who use these Forums. If it's not something you would want your 10-year-old to hear, probably best not to say it here.

Thanks for the understanding.

Looks pretty good. I seen a photo of this kit years ago when it was first released but not a clear view of her right arm/hand. Guess she must be looking for the TV remote?

...I painted this years ago when it was first released by VLS...I threw their PE bedframe away and used a three-dimensional white-metal one from Andrea (i think)...the wood flooring is individually laid pieces of wood strip--and the newspaper and boots are VLS items...

...Humbrol enamels and oils...the resin casting of the bed and figs is ONE PIECE !!!
