If he's a Staff Weenie, showing off for the higher ups, then an orderly or two to hold the horses, help him get back in the saddle, properly interpret what he's seeing, and/or keeping him from getting into too much mischief, will be necessary. <br /><br />Great work on the conversions. Please keep us posted on any further developments.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440393996804815125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-49894116212428101612010-05-05T09:59:32.358-05:002010-05-05T09:59:32.358-05:00clay shapers go look them up and purchase them.

And combining various pieces from different manufacturers is a great idea to have in the back of one's mind. This latest vignette is, I think, your best to date.<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />StokesWSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-14623369155478439802010-05-05T08:46:51.164-05:002010-05-05T08:46:51.164-05:00Jim,

More figures would detract from the officer's moment of discovery.<br /><br />JimJim Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11549600020726569568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-78170032601471507052010-05-05T02:39:36.044-05:002010-05-05T02:39:36.044-05:00I really like the look of that fence . .. if it w...I really like the look of that fence . .. if it was me, I'd certainly just use the pose as depicted in the first photo.<br /><br />Again, a very nice bit of conversion work for what will be a fine little vignette piece.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595975572873838050noreply@blogger.com
