It doesn't help either that my my eyesight is deteriorating fairly rapidly, but they are a fun set of figures and the genre is a fun one too if not taken too seriously.Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-88042449244204337482018-10-20T14:50:05.828-07:002018-10-20T14:50:05.828-07:00Nice looking tribe you have collected together.

The only grief I have with the bikins are the halter tops. Roman ladies bound their breast for bathing with a simple band around them. Btw I too find the bikini tops idea strange too, but very Hollywood, I reckon they'd all be naked in a warm climate.<br />As for Neanderthals, they too may well be on the Xmas shopping list!<br />When using cotton wool a bit of wetness will adhere the cotton wool well, and removing it the same way!<br /> Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-22168952259971504932018-10-17T17:03:57.898-07:002018-10-17T17:03:57.898-07:00I think you've made a good start, getting all ...I think you've made a good start, getting all these assembled and undercoated. You did well with the weapons, I'm sure I only got 1 for each figure.<br />I think you might need new glasses, the 4 women should have 2 with bikini tops and 2 without. Strangely I find the idea of bikini tops really wierd, and very unlikely.<br />I got the arcane Neanderthals but I agree the cro magnums look great as well.<br />Good idea with the cotton wool for fire on a stick. I'll have to try and remember that.Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14031648950206231742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-35368910596222648722018-10-17T06:15:00.915-07:002018-10-17T06:15:00.915-07:00Thanks Michal, they'll be quite a challenge fo...Thanks Michal, they'll be quite a challenge for me to paointZabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-51431896917029891672018-10-16T20:38:52.625-07:002018-10-16T20:38:52.625-07:00Very, very nice progress!

(But no, I hadn't really thought it out ).<br />Without any preparation the mammoths undercoated really well and I reckon even I can make a fair job of them.<br />Storage I hadn't considered, but I think they'll be OK in yet another plastic vegetable tray from my fiendly grocer.Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776165776368681924.post-56787100258875657522018-10-16T02:51:00.411-07:002018-10-16T02:51:00.411-07:00Oh dear I can feel another project starting for me...Oh dear I can feel another project starting for me!
