Every fathers nightmare!



Behave yourself daughter!



Here is why we are worried





Nice figs from MB but the girls' face needed about 2 hours of carving to get rid of an old lady look.
She will go in this dio when I get back to it.

Outstanding work, Jerry.

nice ass..the chic ain't bad either.

I'd be holding more than a rake sending my daughter out. Nothing like a rick-rack to put a damper on passion. I like the scene and the figures turned out great!

She is really fine,, I mean,,, She's really put together well,, I mean,,, ah hell... Great work, Jerry!! The hair & facial features are amazing! Looking forward to seeing her again in your Berlin dio.

Nice work Jerry, Al

Fantastic stuff Jerry- brilliant bright colors!

Excellent work Jerry.

Thanks everyone for the kind words as always. I really like the contrast between the old old stone walls and the new clothing. It will really pop when the scene comes together with veggies,more people,etc. I least I hope so!!
I can't always model blown up stuff,etc.

Looks good, Jerry. Nice change of pace with the subject matter and bright colors.

Cheers,
James

Thanks James,
Who knows how long it will be before I can get back to this big dio?

Hubba hubba!

Nice work!

Hi Jerry , great work mate. The setting reminds me of a story my ma told me years back . Her and a couple of sisters were going out to their first dance and were stood on the doorstep as my granny was giving them the talk about behaving themselves etc etc . She turns to my grandfather and says " Paddy, are you not gonna say anything to your girls on their first night out?" . He looks up from his paper and simply says, " Girls .....keep both feet in the one sock !" You have to love that line .

That's one hell of a nicely done figure,love the details you added.

Nice figure. We are so lucky with the figures available to us now in plastic. I'm still waiting what you can do with a Dension smock

Thanks for checking in guys and for the excellent comments. I tried typing a longer repsonse but I keep getting this stupid plug in shutting me down!! Firefox!! What the heck!??

Hi Jerry,
What a neat piece,she looks real good.
Couple of comments if I may?
What set is she from?
Any in progress shots particularly of the head and face?I'm interested in how you got a more feminine look.
Also did you need to undercut the skirt around the legs or is the skirt a multi piece afair?

Finally your TOW rework has inspired me to try a similar job on the old Dragon US Sniper team with various new bits and bobs from the spare part box 😷

I'll hope to post photos once I figure out how to from from tablet.

m Thanks Chris for the very generous remarks!
The fig is from a MB set called Women of WWII if I remember correctly? You get three adults and a shirly temple lookin kid. Nice set. Sadly I didn't think of a before pic so I have no comparison shot of the face. I had to use my new optivisor and a couple of new number 11 blades to carefully carve away excess flesh using the box top as a guide.The skirt was taken care of by the parts breakdown so I just thinned the edge a bit. I also took some contours off the leg bits to give some better shape as well as tweeked the shoes by accenting the edges where the feet meet the shoe. If you go to the figure forum there are more in progress pics there. HTH and thanks again. YES!! Please post you work on the sniper deal.

Sorry again folks for bumping this and the other thread. I am lazy and wanted to use some refs on here.

Nice work. She needs a GI on her arm with some candy and ciggies.

Can I introduce her to some of my 1/35 figs? They are just in age to marry someone...

Bill and Ed,
Thanks for looking in and typing some nice comments. I think I will get back on this big city dio this winter when it's nice and snug in my basement. Still too nice outside to work on anything big and involved.
J

I fall in love with the girl, Mr. Jerry!

She's cool, sexy, and so fashionable represented. Very realistic expression on her smile. Hope that I can learn more for perform face painting, especially on eyes and lips, oh nooo, that's a nightmare... Keep up the good work Sir and can't wit for your 105 mm to be finished


Cheers

Reminds me of my grandmother meeting a GI passing thru Belgium with the THIRD army in 1944. He took her down the aisle in 1945.
'Course her father worked in the coal mines. . .
