List just one thing you did today

Oh wow, well, SO isn't sure that being a doctor is a good choice for him, so who knows, maybe this is his actual calling, and he will move into sculpting later! He does like creating things with his own hands.

I did know another accomplished modeler who loved his regular job. As a creator of various kinds of dental prosthesis. Another one I knew was a first rate car model painter. Which just happened to be his real job painting real automobiles.

Ok no banana, but I used some reading glasses for scale of the most recent figure I painted. Not my best, but for being away for five years takes its toll I suppose:

And relatively accurate in the historical sense. But that's always been an aspect of my modeling when I discovered high-grade model building.

With the Germans' uniforms being the most colorful and interesting. When late in the war their sense of uniformity itself vanished, and you could see all kinds of weird deviations to what they war in combat. (The tank operator depicted in the smaller Panzer IF tank above is wearing Italian camouflage. A very popular choice among the SS.)

Yeah, so small that to paint them I need a pair of 2X reading glasses on top of my prescription glasses I use for the computer. :rolleyes:
