THE CLUBHOUSE

Excellent work as usual Paul ...you're really on a roll at the moment, what's next on the bench?

Outstanding work Paul, well done mate

WOW! That came out amazingly beautiful. Looks like the intense labor of love that it is and definitely a piece to be proud of. Paul, you do and outstanding job with each one as well as doing a great play by play description of the process you're using.....so ever thought of doing a buildup article ...

Absolutely stunning work Paul! Your attention to detail is admirable and really pays off on this piece, which is a perfect homage to a classic piece of cinema history. Now you just have to convince the missus that this deserves to be displayed in all its glory in pride of place somewhere in the hous...

Excellent work Paul....when you posted up the pics of the kit before you started work, I never imagined that it would end up looking this good. You've employed so many techniques to raise it up to this level, and it's all been worth it. I'll look forward to seeing him on his custom built base!

Congratulations on the textures Paul, and welcome to the world of sculpting
I'm sure it nearly drove you mad carving in every one of those little scales, but it was definitely worth it in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing the next stages of this build up!

This looks like a task to be attempted by only the most experienced of modellers... and knowing you as I do Paul, I think you're just the right sort of person to pull this off. I'll admit to not having seen this sort of model kit before, and it looks very tricky to me. But I've got to say that you'v...

That came out pretty well to say the least Paul :D You have surpassed yourself here with all the various details and textures and I am still in awe of the effect you've achieved with the translucency of the Alien head dome! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the next project on your workbench!

It's all looking superb so far mate
You've done a fabulous job on that Alien head and as ever your attention to detail is on show in the rest of the kit. I'll look forward to seeing the finished piece when you've got it all done!

Another stunning piece of work Paul
This may have taken a long time to complete, but all the time and effort was certainly worth it in the end!

Beautifully done mate! Congrats on another superb paint-up

Cheers guys .....and thanks Ted for your continued support, I don't have any immediate plans for another dragon but I wouldn't rule out another one sometime in the future.

Thanks again for the feedback This piece turned out better than I thought it would when I was half way through, I'm glad I kept at it now

....and thanks a lot Spike, I don't think I've ever had anyone genuflect before me up to now ,but I think I should graciously accept I hope you enjoy painting your own chimp when you get some free time to concentrate on it.

Thanks BlueRaven, glad you like him

....and thanks too Stu, I'll look forward to seeing your paint up, especially your hair work No name yet for this one, but I never was any good at naming my pieces. Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot everyone for the great feedback :D I really appreciate folks taking the time to comment on this piece, especially as it's not a genre piece. A couple of people mention the mottled skin colouring I've used, wondering if it's authentic to Chimpanzee colouring. I've studied many photos of ...

Thanks a lot, Carl and Susan....much appreciated
