Love the Flashman front cover; you've worked your magic again with style!

Manny Quinn is finished. Not overjoyed at the result, but it was a learning experience in new techniques that I tried out during the build.

Re: Purplethistles patch
I honestly wish I had the imagination to guess what (who) you are going to make each time you start a new figure, let alone the imagination and skill to actually make one myself!!

Re: Purplethistles patch
A brief diversion whilst I go back to where it all started, 1/72 planes, this time the Hobby Boss Hellcat, although I mistakenly ordered the F-6F5 instead of the F-6F3, so I have to fashion a wee window behind the 'pit.
Bummer! I've got PostImage Traumatic Stress Disorder.....it ain't working!

Cheers Gnome, I've been neglecting wingy things for a while, so this was a wee refresher course.
