    As I've posted the first part of the gnomes' description here the progress on the model... Still missing one arm, both hands and the upper part of his face...

    Great job on the horned one. Your use of earthy tones gives it a very realistic look. Bring on the rider! :)

    Your Gnome conversion is coming along nicely. Keep up the good work.

    Real cool gnome! One thing to say though, watch out for finger prints because they might spoil your paintjob afterwards ;)

    Training with the motor trimmer... The building in the background is an old watermill and the "lawn" is a former pasture for the miller's sheep... We use this area to teach the boys using different kinds of trimmers, mowers and such stuff... Today it felt more like a boot camp action... 45°C in the sun and no shade except a small area near the fence. (wich was behind me when I took the picture)

    Main problem is, that the pot is nearly empty now and I can't find the new big one I bought some months ago... ;):p

    Redoing my priest... Lost his right arm... Wanted to green stuff a new one and cut off the feathers from the left hand... Finally found the missing arm between my daughter's dirty socks... Thought of doing a conversion like on the other two... Will end up glueing the feathers back on, but decided that he is easier to paint without them. ;)
    Here some wip pictures (I should really do a picture of my finished models... Found out, that they are not so many, so one pic tomorrow should do... :p)
