Hi there

The tutorial is fantastic. Thanks. Have stored it for future if I ever get to building some of my famous 'round-to its' in 1/72. Painting was always a side that I lost myself in, especially in such small scale.

Have you done a tutorial in figure painting to 1/72?

Unfortunately I have never gotten the time to do
a tutorial about figurepainting but perhaps one
day I'll get time over to do one...

Sven-Åke,

Thanks for the tutorials! Excellent easy to follow format and great example photographs. This is the kind of stuff that all of us are here for (to learn new techniques, share our builds and help others in their quest to build better models to enjoy this very wonderful hobby. I too have stored these turorials to use in my furture builds. Hoping you will get some spare time to do a simular tutorial on figures.

Again, THANKS
-Eddy

Thanks Eddy!!!

You are absolutely right about why we are all here!!!

Feels good that you found the tutorial useful.

About a figurepainting tutorial, well I suppose I could do one but it takes so much time
and at the moment time is not what I have a lot of but once some free time shows up
I might consider doing one...

Best regards

Thanks Alan!!!

I'm glad you like it...

If nothing goes wrong I should be able to show it in it's finished state in
a week or so with the gun and windows in place plus a third figure and
a whole bunch of stowage...

Tjena Sven-Åke! Läget?

Great weathering.... and although I really like your 1/72 vehicles, I must say your figures at that same scale are astonishing. Excellent details and colours. Haven’t been around as much as usual, but I’m glad you’re still producing these high-class vehicles. If anything, the quality is getting better all the time.

Thanks Frank!!!

Good to see you again!!!

Yes, the figures are what I concentrate most on now since I feel they are
still my weak point. Perhaps one day I will feel comfortable doing them

Thanks!!!
