I was inspired by the army and had a chance to talk with you about it after the GD ended. I have done up one platoon and it took a bit of trial and error to get the arms right, but I was finally able to get the arms right after making my thumb look like ground hamburger. <br /><br />Thanks for the info on how you did them and with the badab war campaign we are running this summer I believe I will be using mine as troops under hurons command.traitorerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895422371692631628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-4664385474208748032011-05-10T19:17:49.896-07:002011-05-10T19:17:49.896-07:00That doctor with the operating table has to be my ...That doctor with the operating table has to be my favorite model of them all.

By far not your best painted but I think your best overall. The true character, and conversion work that went into it really made it stand out on the table. So many people have really tried to mimic it in the recent years but none have really come close. <br /><br />I know you said in the past to me that you planned on expanding it, have you thought about what with, and when?AkersMinishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17023300139654105140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469017760558244027.post-20328539275211740722011-05-10T14:46:35.200-07:002011-05-10T14:46:35.200-07:00Inspirational as ever.
