Very nice Cheng !!

But one question: why did you use 1-2-3-figures ?

What's the reason ?

compliments from the masters?!
thanks guys...

i haven't anything new to buy for some time now...so thought i'd try something new...1-2-3 customs....maybe shake up the customisers' world, haha! and all your babies, of course! :D

my next problem was their hats...i made a slouch hat from a PVC contact lens holder but it didnt sit right...i'll have to shave their hair...thats against my own rules for customs :)

sorry Richard, i hit the 'submit' before answering you, :)

next project? while waiting for the Romans?! :)
lots of inspirations from you guys and David but no material to work on
...i'll just be enlarging my ACW & shako armies when my parts package arrive :)

i still have more 1-2-3s to custom...shakos next...problem is that they cant hold guns/things...so they'll be a couple of sweet-looking peace-loving british redcoat and frenchie...again, minus their headware!

Wow Cheng! That is very original!

They kind of look like kids dressed up as Civil War soldiers. Sweet!
