Beautiful! Figure painting seems like the highest model art to me.

Superb, absolutely brilliant ........ Would give almost anything to be able to paint figures to somewhere near this standard .

Please post more and details of how ?

Beautiful figures, Dave, and especially the painting, which I think is
particularly hard on these larger figures (more skin and clothing area to shade).

Please Show-n-Tell us how you do it, Step-by-Step.

Hi Dave welcome.
Nice to see you here! Wonderful work, I've really enjoyed your videos on your WWI trenches diorama.
:)

I will post more photos tomorrow and thanks for such a warm welcome! I will do a step by step in the very near future using a large scale figure bust - easier to show the techniques!

Welcome aboard! That's beautiful work! Maybe I missed it, but what scale are these figures?

Hi Dave, great to see you posting here, and what a wonderful entré these figures are. As the others have said...simply beautiful work. The flas tines and sublety in the coloring, light and shadows is just super. I truly enjoy seeing quality figure painting like this. Look forward to seeing more of your work.

Hi Dave,
I have always liked to see your work where ever you have showed it on line. To me figure painting is another hobby all of it own.  A question for you. 120mm figures are they equal to 1/16" scale? To the members of the forum I have no connection with Daves store but have ordered there and received outstanding service!

Mike,
I "think" so, as i am looking for some good figures in 1/16th for my machine shop.
Looks like I will have to spend some money to get decent ones!
Hoping Dave will teach us a few things too. :)

Verlinden calls them 1/16. Others seem to think they are 1/15. Shrug .. at 1/15 a 120mm figure would b 5'9". If 1/16 about 6'4"
