Can't believe !!!   :o

You must be born in a tube of oïl, wit a brush in your right hand !

Even if it was a 120mm I could not paint it so !!!

We would most suggest to open a Member Gallery for you and suggest that you regularly place in several of your master pieces to communicate your holy talent and passion to all of us travelling in this forum !

These are ultimate goals we can then set as objectoves in our quest for perfection, and the man we can call and refer to gather answers to the obessive question "Ohman, how did you did this??"

Michel the flat was painted many years ago in my 20's I have changed how I paint flats.. I primarily used Humbrol paints and then detailed in Oils..
As I promised I will do a small article on how I paint detail on flats.. Hopefully before the years end
