    THIS IS DIFFERENT !!!!!!!!!
    YES, I do like using BLACK PRIMER, makes shadowing so much better…
    I always put figures with my subjects, at least one to show the scale of a TANK or AIRCRAFT…
    Love the MUSIC in the background…
    Hope you and your family
    Roger the Dog, have a
    MERRY CHRISTMAS…

    VERY cool. Brings back memories of 1990 - was flying as sensor operator for HSL-43 and we were doing a deployment that would last through Christmas - I had our PR (Parachute Rigger - they did all fabric work and survival gear) make all the flight crews for our detachment GIANT Santa hats that could be applied over our flight-helmets.
    Was AMUSING to fly to other ships over the holidays to drop mail and supplies - then see the face of the flight-deck crew when SANTA was crouched in the door of the SH-60B Seahawk helicopter .

    Hey, I picked this same figure up two years ago. It was fun to build, I put him into a WWI trench, as he looked more early 1900's rather than mid-century! Now I'll have to go see if I have any inbuild photos and may post up a quick photo build video!

    Kudos for having the patience to paint figures. I can't bring myself to try and do that. Love making tanks but all that figures included I just pass on to my son. Whatever I paint just looks like mannequins and unnatural. Sticking to WW2 vehicles for now. Good work!

    Santa: Ho! Ho! Ho! Let's see what I have in my sack.
    For Tommy I have extra Bren magazines, because you can never have too many.
    For Reginald in the Royal Tank Corps, I have a reliable Honey to replace your lousy Cruiser Mk. II.
    And for RAF Fighter Command, I have the Spitfire IX. Trust me, it's the best present you'll ever get.
    Ho! Ho! Ho!

    If he is in England he is Father Christmas not Santa Claus. They don't call him Santa like we do. You can distinguish our Santa from their Father Christmas as American Santa has a short coat where as Europe Father Christmas has the really long coat.
