Constructive feedback welcome

About 90 odd miniatures were painted two years ago using the plastic pre-primer and they are surviving well.

All painted and inked using Derivan Minis with the plastic pre-primed using the Matisse pre-primer.

What are Derivan Minis and Matisse pre-primer?

Considering the low quality of the miniatures, you have done an incridible job!!!

Derivan Minis are an Australian made paint range and the pre-primer is used to help the paint adhere to plastic even though the plastic is flexible.

Thank you for the positive feed back and encouragement.

I appreciate it.

I haven't touched a paint brush for over a month.

At least some of the minis look just like Airfix's US paratroopers.
