Here are a few shots of one or two of Barney's ( not his real name , but he hasn't given me the OK to say what it is ) creations . Basically for the last 15 or so years he has been entering one of his Holts each year at Euro Militaire, and come away with a large hamper full of Gold awards and the odd Best in Show . As usual my photos don't do the models justice , so you will have to take my word that they are bloody fantastic ( excuse my French).

Beautiful models, and original subjects!
But Barneys modelling skills are far more convincing than his (or is it yours?) efforts to keep his real name a secret. The results from Euro Militaire are posted on the net, so anyone  with 30 seconds to spare and access to google can find out for themselves.

But , Hauk , I'm not trying to keep his name a secret , I'm just not saying it , just in case he's feeling shy .  The first clue is in the name I've given the photos !

  While I'm here I might as well post another photo . This is George ,

Not bad. And is that your office in one of the shots above? If so, it looks rather nice. So when I say, "Go stand in the corner", please don't go there. Find a dank dungeon or something. -- Russ

It's my understanding that the dungeon is an upgrade with many entertaining devices to while away the hours...
