super work. relly love it . just wonder if a nice wood bord would have been better for the presentation. The vegetation seem to me not convincing .

Ollie: I think his vegetation is quite fine. Certainly more convincing than the Chinese broccoli I had for lunch.

Well, THAT's the work of art! I like the twist with failed booby trap (and related detailing too, of course). The pain job is something I can only dream of. Simply amazing...

Wow, I just learned you can say "kicks ass" right here at the big A ... that's what I was thinking. So awesome work was the next thought. I love the Sturmy anyway and Rob pulled off a great diorama. I even saved the whole article too.
Very nice work!

Rob,
Extremely nice piece of work Rob! I like the dio and story that it tells. As I had mentioned before concerning the finish, this has got to be the finest red oxide primer rendition that I have seen to date! You've done a splendid job of capturing the look of this big cat. Nice figure too. Great set of photos showing all angles of your model and dio to good effect.
Thanks to you and Darren for taking the time to generate this feature for everyone to view and enjoy.

I thank you guys very much for the kind and motivating comments. The Sturmy was a fun project and I liked the differant paint scheme, but i definately need to practice on the groundwork. Thank you again.
