When Is A Blog Not A Blog?

Is this still a blog if I don't add to it for two and a half years? One of life's big questions I suppose.

Anyway here I am, mainly because I've completed the pewter masters for a new set of 1/76 scale figures.

I have been wanting to add 1920/30s sets of figures to my OO range for a long time, and here is the first the four I have planned. They are drawn in 3D so will also be appearing in other scales. Hopefully it won't take too long, as I've done most of the work on the 40 figures needed.

Some of the 1/43 pewter masters are completed too. They will appear in four figure sets.

Some of my customers kindly send me photos of my figures in their new homes.

Gary Aardahl has expertly painted my 1860s Loco Crew for his superb locomotive.

Danny Vanstraelen sent me images of beautifully painted passengers travelling on his wonderful model railway.

On a different note, Jason Kristunas commissioned me to sculpt a 1/43 scale WW1 Pilot, who later had some problems on the beach!

As always there is lots of work to do repairing and repainting my fathers old pewter figures. This one had a broken SLR and the customer wanted the Cheshire Regiment badge added to the base.

To finish off, more repairs and repaints. The visor and shield were broken on the left hand figure, the SLR broken on the middle figure, and the dog lead snapped on the right hand figure.
